Problem 2. Consider an oscillator of spring constant k for which the drag force F is constant What is the smallest initial displacement (with zero initial velocity) for which the oscillator will start moving? What is the initial displacement (with zero initial velocity) for which the oscillator will start moving toward the equilibrium position it would have with no friction, and would stop exactly there?
