I am not sure if i get this part of a book i am using:
Why are the mwo²xa acting too? Is not 2kxa enough?
It is due to gravity.LCSphysicist said:Homework Statement:: All below

Normal modes oscillations refer to the natural oscillations of a system or object that occur when it is disturbed from its equilibrium position. These oscillations are characterized by a specific frequency and amplitude, and are independent of any external forces acting on the system.
Normal modes oscillations are unique in that they do not require any external forces to maintain their motion. They occur naturally due to the inherent properties and structure of the system or object, whereas other types of oscillations, such as forced oscillations, require an external force to maintain their motion.
The frequency of normal modes oscillations is primarily determined by the mass and stiffness of the system. A higher mass or stiffness will result in a lower frequency, while a lower mass or stiffness will result in a higher frequency.
Yes, normal modes oscillations can occur in any system or object that has the ability to oscillate. This includes mechanical systems, electrical circuits, and even molecules and atoms.
Normal modes oscillations are used to study the behavior and properties of various systems and objects. They are also used in engineering to design and analyze structures and machines, as well as in physics to understand the fundamental principles of oscillatory motion.
