Consider a mass and spring system with mass m = 3 and spring constant k = 75, and damping constant c. What would the frequency of oscillation be if there were no damping at all (c = 0)? What is the critical value of the damping constant c that separates oscillatory from non-oscillatory motion? fc=25, is the system underdamped, overdamped, or neither?
