For the damped oscillator system shown in Figure 2, the block has a mass of 1.50 kg and thespring constant is 8.00 N/m. The damping force is given by -b(dx/dt), where b = 230 g/s. Theblock is pulled down 12.0 cm and released.(a) Calculate the time required for the amplitude of the resulting oscillations to fall to one-thirdof its initial value.(b) How many oscillations are made by the block in this time?

Which ONE of the following statements is TRUE about the solution to problem 6)? The value of the output monotonically increases from its initial value to its final asymptotic value. The solution exhibits oscillations. The solution is a linear function of time. The solution is constant with time.
