3. Imagine a door which can swings into and out of a room. The door has a closer with a spring stiffness of 71 N-m/rad and damping of 7.5 N-m-s/rad and mass moment of inertia of the door with respect to the hinge is 20 kg-m?. If the door is held open and then let go from an angle of 50 degrees, how long will the door continue to swing into and out of the room? How many times will it swings before it will closed? Assume that the door is considered closed when the amplitude has decreased to 2.5 degrees. Assume that small angle approximation holds, such that sin(theta) = theta.
