A mass weighing 4 pounds is attached to a spring whose constant is 2 lb/ft. The medium offers a damping force that is numerically equal to the instantaneous velocity. The mass is initially released from a point 1 foot above the equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 14 ft/s. 1. Determine the time (in s) at which the mass passes through the equilibrium position.
2. Find the time after the mass passes through the equilibrium position at which the mass attains its extreme displacement from the equilibrium position.
3. What is the position of the mass at this instant?

The height of a birch tree, f(x), in inches, after x months is shown in the graph below. how much does the birch tree grow per month, and what will be the height of the birch tree after 10 months? a. the birch tree grows 1 inch per month. the height of the birch tree will be 16 inches after 10 months. b. the birch tree grows 2 inches per month. the height of the birch tree will be 26 inches after 10 months. c. the birch tree grows 3 inches per month. the height of the birch tree will be 36 inches after 10 months. d. the birch tree grows 2 inches per month. the height of the birch tree will be 24 inches after 10 months.
