Determining Response of Overdamped System

And sorry for the late answer I am really busy with the finals.

no worries

My professor doesn't want from me to think as mathematician , he wants me to think with my own head and think as a engineer and a physicist,he wants from me to describe him a problem and give him solution without equations actually by logical thinking.

engineers and physicists have to think about the mathematical concepts. I am an engineer as well. I've had to use the type of analysis I've mentioned at my job. math is simply a tool for engineers and physicists.

If you haven't discussed poles and zeros yet then most likely the answer is initial conditions, like you already mentioned. the green would simply be initial conditions of zero (or close to it)

I agree 100% with you ,math is our tool.Do you work as Control engineer, I guess you are using a lot of MatLAB at your work?
