A damping mechanism for closing a door allows it to close on its own, as shown in the figure. The shock consists of a spring to return attached to an oil-filled damping piston. When the spring pulls the piston to the right, the teeth of the piston bar engage in a sprocket, which rotates and causes the door to close. Should the system be sub-meame, critically cushioned or over-cushioned for best performance (where the door closes quickly without hitting the frame)? Explain your answer.
