Watch the fascinating behaviour of a mass-spring-damper system as it transitions from overdamped (where motion is slow and heavily resisted) to undamped (where it oscillates freely without energy loss). This animation beautifully demonstrates how varying levels of damping impact motion and energy dissipation in mechanical systems.
