Applications
It can be shown that the vertical displacement of a mass
suspended from a spring, in the absence of damping (i.e.,
when resistance to the motion,
such as air resistance, is negligible),
is given by

where ω is the frequency, t

is time and a and b are
constants.

EXAMPLE 6.6 Analysis of a Spring-Mass System

Suppose that u(t) measures the displacement (measured

in inches) of a mass suspended from a spring t seconds
after it is released and that u(t) = 4 cos 2t.

Find the velocity at any time t and determine the

maximum velocity.

EXAMPLE 6.6 Analysis of a Spring-Mass System

Solution
Since u(t) represents position (displacement), the
velocity is given by u’(t).

Of course, sin 2t oscillates between −1 and 1 and hence,

the largest that u(t) can be is −8(−1) = 8 inches/second.
