VIBRATING SPRINGS
We consider the motion of an object with mass m at the end of a spring that is either ver-
tical (as in Figure 1) or horizontal on a level surface (as in Figure 2).
In Section 7.5 we discussed Hooke’s Law, which says that if the spring is stretched (or
g
compressed) x units from its natural length, then it exerts a force that is proportional to x :

(See Exercise 17.) This type of motion is called simple harmonic motion.
P o t EXAMPLE 1 A spring with a mass of 2 kg has natural length 0.5 m. A force of 25.6 N is
required to maintain it stretched to a length of 0.7 m. If the spring is stretched to a length
N
of 0.7 m and then released with initial velocity 0, find the position of the mass at any
time t .

Since the initial velocity is given as x 0 0, we have c2 0 and so the solution is

DAMPED VIBRATIONS
We next consider the motion of a spring that is subject to a frictional force (in the case of
g
the horizontal spring of Figure 2) or a damping force (in the case where a vertical spring
i n
moves through a fluid as in Figure 3). An example is the damping force supplied by a
shock absorber in a car or a bicycle.

We assume that the damping force is proportional to the velocity of the mass and acts
a
in the direction opposite to the motion. (This has been confirmed, at least approximately,
by some physical experiments.) Thus

x as a function of t are shown in Figure 4. Notice that oscillations do not occur. (It’s pos-
sible for the mass to pass through the equilibrium position once, but only once.) This is

It is similar to Case I, and typical graphs resemble those in Figure 4 (see Exercise 12), but
the damping is just sufficient to suppress vibrations. Any decrease in the viscosity of the

−0.2 = x(0) = c1 and 0 = x0 (0) = 29 c2 . Thus the position is given by x(t) = −0.2 cos(4.5t).

x0 (0) = 0. The general solution is x(t) = c1 e−6t + c2 e−t . But 1 = x(0) = c1 + c2 and 0 = x0 (0) = −6c1 − c2 .

10. As in Exercise 9, xc (t) = c1 cos ωt + c2 sin ωt. But the natural frequency of the system equals the
frequency of the external force, so try xp (t) = t(A cos ωt + B sin ωt). Then we need
m(2ωB − ω2 At) cos ωt − m(2ωA + ω2 Bt) sin ωt + kAt cos ωt + kBt sin ωt = F0 cos ωt or 2mωB = F0 and
−2mωA = 0 (noting −mω 2 A + kA = 0 and −mω 2 B + kB = 0 since ω2 = k/m). Hence the general solution is
x(t) = c1 cos ωt + c2 sin ωt + [F0 t/(2mω)] sin ωt.

11. From Equation 6, x(t) = f (t) + g(t) where f (t) = c1 cos ωt + c2 sin ωt and g(t) = cos ω0 t. Then f

12. (a) The graph of x = c1 ert + c2 tert has a t-intercept when c1 ert + c2 tert = 0 ⇔ ert (c1 + c2 t) = 0 ⇔
c1 = −c2 t. Since t > 0, x has a t-intercept if and only if c1 and c2 have opposite signs.

Substituting into the differential equation gives
(−200A + 240B + 200A) cos 10t + (−200B − 240A + 200B) sin 10t = 12 sin 10t, so B = 0 and
