Answer:
a)

b)
m = 48lb
c)
b = 144.76lb
Explanation:
The general equation of a damping oscillate motion is given by:
(1)
uo: initial position
m: mass of the block
b: damping coefficient
w: angular frequency
α: initial phase
a. With the information given in the statement you replace the values of the parameters in (1). But first, you calculate the constant b by using the information about the viscous resistance force:

Then, you obtain by replacing in (1):
6in = 0.499 ft

b.
mass, m = 48lb
c.
b = 144.76 lb/s
Answer:
it will go up along the inclined plane by d = 9.62 m
Explanation:
As we know that puck is moving upward along the slide
then the net force opposite to its speed is given as

so here deceleration is given as

now plug in all values in it


now the distance covered by the puck along the plane is given as
