Problem Set A Problem 6. (20%) A ordinary differential equation for a mass-damper-spring system is following. The mass m 1, damping coetfic e initial position y(o) O, and the initial velocity i constant k 3 and force 10, all are in appropriate units. Th 1, spring zero, within the time range of O to 20 unit of time, use Matlab find the solution of function y(t)? Hint: you need to convert the 2nd order ODE into two 1st order ODEs....

I've got parts a-c and understand them. However, I do not understand the rest of the problem and how to solve for the answers in parts d and e. Any explanation would be helpful. (1 point) A mass of 4 kg stretches a spring 40 cm. The mass is acted on by an external force of F(t) = 97 cos(0.5t) N and moves in a medium that imparts a viscous force of 8 N when the speed of the mass...
2. (15 scores) Consider the mechanical system shown in Figure 1. A spring exerts a force that is a function of its extension. A damper exerts a force that is a function of the velocity of the piston. Assume that the spring and the damper are both linear. (1) We want to describe the relation between the external force F(t) and the position yt) of the mass. Give the differential equation relating F(t) and y(t). Define this carefully as a...
Imagine that we release a rock of mass m (which is initially at rest) at the surface of a lake and measure its position and velocity as functions of time while it sinks. The rock moves under the influence of three forces: gravity, buoyancy, and viscous drag. Let y represent the vertical position of the sinking rock, with the surface of the lake at y -0, and positive y upwards The net force on the rock is F =-[m-mdisplaced where...
