This problem is an example of over-damped harmonic motion. A mass m = 3 kg is attached to both a spring with spring constant k = 36 N/m and a dash-pot with damping constant c = 21 N s/m. The ball is started in motion with initial position o=-6 m and initial velocity vo 3 m/s. Determine the position function (t) in meters. x(t) = Graph the function (t).
