Our unforced spring mass model is mx00 + βx0 + kx = 0 with m, β, k >0. We know physically that our spring will eventually come to rest nomatter the initial conditions or the values of m, β, or k. If our modelis a good model, all solutions x(t) should approach 0 as t → ∞. Foreach of the three cases below, explain how we know that both rootsr1,2 =−β ± Sqrt(β^2 − 4km)/2mwill lead to solutions that exhibit exponentialdecay.(a) β^2 − 4km > 0.
(b) β^2 − 4km =0.

Choose your origin at one of the two corners that touch the floor, the x axis pointing along the bottom edge of the board, the y axis pointing up the slope, and the z axis normal to the board. You now kick a frictionless puck that is resting at O so that it slides across the board with initial velocity (vox, voy, 0). Write down Newton's second law using the given coordinates and then find how long the puck takes to return to the floor level and how far it is from O when it does so.arrow_forward
