A mass of 1 kg stretches a spring 49 cm in equilibrium. It is attached to a dashpost that supplies a damping force of 4 N for each m/s of speed. Then the mass is pushed up such that at time t = 0 seconds the mass is 20 cm above equilibrium with a downward velocity of 1 m/s (without any external force acting on it). Solve for the upward displacement from equilibrium y(t) at time t > 0. Pay close attention to the units. Put the answer in the box provided
