Answer:

Option c.

No damping

Explanation:

We can easily solve this question by using a graphing calculator or any plotting tool.

The function is

f(x) = (√11)*cos(3.7x)

Which can be seen in the picture below

We can notice that f(x) is a cosine with maximum amplitude of (√11). Neither this factor nor the multiplication of x by 3.7 serve as a damping factor since they are constants.

f(x) does not present any dampening
