mass of 1 kg is pushed by a force of 2 N and reaches a terminal velocity of 1 m/s on an oil slick horizontal floor. Determine the time constant of the system. Once this is known, how long will it take to reach 95% of its final speed if it starts from rest? Sketch a plot of the speed response of the mass. Indicate on the plot the final value and how the time constant and initial slope of the response are related.
