Question
In this question, assume the "additional displacement" is in the positive u direction.
A mass weighing 16 lbs stretches a spring 8 inches. The mass is in a medium that exerts a viscous resistance
of 1 lbs when the mass has a velocity of 2 ft/sec.
Suppose the object is displaced an additional 5 inches and released.
Find an equation for the object's displacement, u(t), in feet after t seconds.
u(t) =
