A 0.9-kg block B is connected by a cord to a 2.4-kg block A which is suspended

Question:

A 0.9-kg block B is connected by a cord to a 2.4-kg block A which is suspended as shown from two springs, each of constant 180 k = N/m, and a dashpot of damping coefficient c = 7.5N ?? s/m. Knowing that the system is at rest when the cord connecting A and B is cut, determine the minimum tension that will occur in each spring during the resulting motion.
