Question
How many times can the mass pass through equilibrium in critical damping? What condition can be placed on y(0) to ensure that the mass never passes through the equilibrium point? How does the initial velocity influence whether the mass passes through the equilibrium point?
Solution
The first step in solving 2 problem number 12 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: How many times can the mass pass through equilibrium in critical damping? What condition can be placed on y(0) to ensure that the mass never passes through the equilibrium point? How does the initial velocity influence whether the mass passes through the equilibrium point?
From the textbook chapter Linear Second-Order Equations you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
