A mass of 1kg is attached to a spring of length l0 with spring constant k. It is brought out of its equilibrium position and released. A frictional force that is proportional to the velocity of the mass is action on it. The proportionality is b.
Change the value of k and of b. Observe what is happening.
The right graph shows the position of the mass as a function of time for the parameters choosen.
The time the simulation runs is fixed and not always sufficient to reach the steady state solution.
