A mass weighing 4 pounds is attached to a spring whose constant is 2 lb/ft. The medium offers a damping force that is numerically equal to the instantaneous velocity. The mass is initiall released from a point 1 foot above the equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 16 ft/s. Determine the time (in s) at which the mass passes through the equilibrium position. (Use g = 32 ft/s² for the acceleration due to gravity.) 12 Find the time (in s) after the mass passes through the equilibrium position at which the mass attains its extreme displacement from the equilibrium position. 3 S What is the position (in ft) of the mass at this instant? 0.79079 ft X
