thank you guys, i look through the book, and it really helps, if anyone know any other resources, that would help too, thanks

Hi everyone, please check the attachments for the problems. What i am looking for is not the help to answers. I've been desperately looking for relevant textbooks online that can help me out with proofs problems like that of the attachments. My professor does not provide a textbook, and his...

y'' = B*sin(t) - y y(0) = A (constant) y'(0) = 0 need some help to start this off, thanks

The mass is released at rest at height A, does this give more information about the damping?

Just a quick question that I am unsure about. Let say a vertically suspended spring with an attached mass at the bottom. How does the mass relate to the damping coefficient? I am guessing that the mass is proportional to the damping coefficient. The heavy the mass at the end, the higher the...

Homework Statement Beta = b/sqrt(mk) Explain how Beta can be interpreted as a ratio of time scales. What do the time scales measure? b: damping coefficient of spring (dimension: M/T) m: mass attach to spring (dimension: M) k: spring constant (dimension: M/T^2) The Attempt at a...

damping is any effect that tends to reduce the amplitude of oscillations in an oscillatory system this is also the point that i am confused about, does the mass on the slinky has anything to do with this damping coefficient?

Homework Statement Does a baseball on a slinky have a smaller Beta, or balloon on a slinky? Explain. Homework Equations Beta = b/sqrt(mk) b: damping coefficient m: mass k: spring constant The Attempt at a Solution I see that the spring constant k is the same for either...

Please check the image, I got it from wikipedia which is similar to the problem i am trying to solve, just a quick question, there's a line on it that says "Since there are two free parameters, at most only two coefficients can be made to equal unity.", i want to know what are the two free...
