A 3.00-kg mass attached to a spring with k =140. N/m is oscillating in a vat of oil, which damps the oscillations.

a) If the damping constant of the oil is b =10.0 kg/s, how long will it take the amplitude of the oscillations to decrease to 1.00% of its original value?


b) What should the damping constant be to reduce the amplitude of the oscillations by 99.0% in 1.00 s?
