A 26-pound weight stretches a certain spring 2 feet when the weight and spring are placed in a fluid that resists motion with a force equal to four times the speed. If the weight is stopped at the equilibrium position and then given a velocity of 5 ft / s, find the equation of motion. The DE that models this phenomenon is y "+ Xy '+ (p/l)y = 0, where X is the resistance force of the medium, p is the weight and l the stretch it produces in the spring.
