Every solution of y′′+by′+cy=0y'' + by' + cy = 0 tends to 00 as t→∞t \to \infty (along with its derivative). The solution with y(0)=0y(0) = 0, y′(0)=1y'(0) = 1 satisfies ∫0∞y dt=15\displaystyle\int_0^\infty y\,dt = \dfrac15 and ∫0∞y2 dt=120\displaystyle\int_0^\infty y^2\,dt = \dfrac{1}{20}. Find the quasi-period of the oscillation.
