• Overdamped system c2> 4km (ζ > 1)
1 and 2 are negative. The solution decays
exponentially towards zero. The system is said to
be overdamped and is not suitable in practice.

• Eqn (1.20) shows that the complimentary
solution is damped sinusoidal wave and the
amplitude decays to zero exponentially
