A 1-kg mass is attached to a spring whose constant is 16 N / m and the damper constant is 10 N.s / m. If the mass is initially released from rest from a point that is 1 meter below the equilibrium position (step by step, use differential equations) a) State all the data of the problem. b) Determine the position and velocity of the mass at time t.

Determine the motion of the spring-mass system governed by the given initial-value problem. In each case, state whether the motion is underdamped, critically damped, or overdamped, and make a sketch depicting the motion. $$\frac{d^{2} y}{d t^{2}}+3 \frac{d y}{d t}+2 y=0, \quad y(0)=1, \quad \frac{d y}{d t}(0)=0$$
