Undergrad Forced Oscillations: +ve Sign of Fcoswt
In the equation of forced oscillations (given below), ma = -kx + FCoswt, why is that the 2nd term on the right hand side is given the +ve sign. I know that kx should be negative since 'ma' and 'x' are in opposite directions. I can't quite seem to get the gist of Fcoswt being given a +ve...- dennisrobert

Before the MM experiment, speed of light was thought to be relative to the observer's motion. I...- dennisrobert
