A spring with a spring constant 4 N/m is loaded with a 2 kgmass and allowed to reach equilibrium. It is then displaced 1 meter downward and released. Suppose the mass experiences a damping force in Newtons equal to 1 times the velocity at every point and an external force of F(t)=4sin(3t) driving the system. Set up a differential equation that describes this system and find a particular solution to this non-homogeneous differential equation:

A spring of spring constant k sits on a frictionless horizontal surface, one end of the spring is attached to a wall, the other end to a block of mass M, also resting on the frictionless surface. The system executes simple harmonic motion such that at a given point the mass is -1/6 of the amplitude moving away from equilibrium, and 0.5 seconds later it has 1/7 of the maximum speeds, moving towards equilibrium, having passed equilibrium once. 1) How...
