Thanks for your reply jambaugh. In this question, it said the system was underdamped - I thought that mean the amplitude does decay exponentially over time. So should I still leave out the e^{-t/\tau} factor?

Homework Statement Homework Equations and the attempt at a solution[/B] Approach: Use the solution for the damped oscillating system provided in the formula sheet. We must use the given initial conditions to find the unknown phase ##\phi## and that will give us an expression for ##x## in...
