In Figure the block has a mass of 1.50 kg and the spring constant is 8.00 N/m. The damping force

Question:

In Figure the block has a mass of 1.50 kg and the spring constant is 8.00 N/m. The damping force is given by – b(dx/dt), where b = 230 g/s. The block is pulled down 12.0 cm and released.
(a) Calculate the time required for the amplitude of the resulting oscillations to fall to one-third of its initial value.
(b) How many oscillations are made by the block in this time?
