[QUOTE="Glenn G, post: 6074736, member: 600909"] Sorry yes I did mean Bsinwt for the second solution... In fact I think it is fine, because if you state that x = 0 after quarter of a cycle (so ∏/2 radians) then you get 0 = Bx1 therefore B = 0 (in x = Acoswt + Bsinwt) so the sine term disappears from the general solution anyway and you end up with C = √A^2 = A for the coefficient which is what I wanted. thanks, G.
