1. To find the least common denominator, you need to find the least common multiple of the two denominators which are 6 and 15. Prime factorization of these numbers gives:

6 = 2 x 3

15 = 5 x 3

A number that would evenly divide both 6 and 15 must contain 2 x 3 x 5 which is 30.

Thus 30 is the least common denominator.

2. Now we need to somehow change both fractions to make them have a denominator of 30. To do this we can multiply by fractions with same numerator and denominator since that would be like multiplying by 1.

So, 5/6 x 5/5 = 25/30

And 14/15 x 2/2 = 28/30

A mass of 5 kg stretches a spring 10 cm. The mass is acted on by an external force of 10sin( t ) N(newtons) and moves in a mediu

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

A) C1 = 0.00187 m = 0.187 cm, C2 = 0.0062 m = 0.62 cm

B) A sample of how the graph looks like is attached below ( periodic sine wave )

C) w = $\sqrt[4]{3}$ is when the amplitude of the forced response is maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data :

mass = 5kg

length of spring = 10 cm = 0.1 m

f(t) = 10sin(t) N

viscous force = 2 N

speed of mass = 4 cm/s = 0.04 m/s

initial velocity = 3 cm/s = 0.03 m/s

Formulating initial value problem

y = viscous force / speed = 2 N / 0.04 m/s = 50 N sec/m

spring constant = mg/ Length of spring = (5 * 9.8) / 0.1 = 490 N/m

f(t) = 10sin(t/2) N

using the initial conditions of u(0) = 0 m and u"(0) = 0.03 m/s to express the equation of motion

the equation of motion = 5u" + 50u' + 490u = 10sin(t/2)
