so how would I solve for what values of B give the inital conditions?

yah i basically have to find when its overdamped, underdamped and critically damped... but I need to figure out how to do it in MATLAB, like plug it in and everything, do you know how to do that?

So I've been trying to figure this out for a while now and all my attempts have failed, like I tried using the command ODE45 but it did not work... this is the equation -> m(d^2x/dt^2) = −kx − β(dx/dt) I'm given that 2λ = β/m, and and ω^2 = k/m and I must solve for when λ^2 − ω^2 > 0 I...
