Using the Laplace Transform to solve a spring mass system that is critically damped
Problem Statement
An 8 pound weight is attached to a spring with a spring constant k of 4 lb/ft. The spring is stretched 2 ft and rests at its equilibrium position. It is then released from rest with an initial upward velocity of 3 ft/s.
