A 3-kilogram mass hangs from a spring with a constant of 4 newtons per meter. The mass is set into motion by giving it a downward velocity of 3 meters per second. Damping in newtons equal to five times the velocity in meters per second acts on the mass during its motion. At time t = 6 seconds, it is struck upwards with a hammer imparting a unit impulse force. Set up the initial-value problem to compute the displacement of the mass as a function of time. Do not solve the equation.
