Vl-022 - Forcing Function -

where \(m\) is the mass, \(c\) is the damping coefficient, \(k\) is the spring constant, \(x\) is the displacement, and \(F(t)\) is the Forcing Function.

If a step Forcing Function is applied to the system, the equation becomes: VL-022 - Forcing Function

where \(F_0\) is the amplitude of the step function and \(u(t)\) is the unit step function. where \(m\) is the mass, \(c\) is the

\[m rac{d^2x}{dt^2} + c rac{dx}{dt} + kx = F(t)\] where \(m\) is the mass

\[m rac{d^2x}{dt^2} + c rac{dx}{dt} + kx = F_0 u(t)\]
