The Effective Mass of a Ball in the Air
... there is no dissipation. A projectile in air has a larger effective mass because when one accelerates the projectile one also has to accelerate the air around it. Such inertial effects are common in physics. An effective mass can be used to account for oscillations with a massive spring3. Similarly, ...

Oscillatory Motion
... Note that the acceleration is NOT constant, unlike our earlier kinematic equations. If the block is released from some position x = A, then the initial acceleration is – kA/m, but as it passes through 0 the acceleration falls to zero. It only continues past its equilibrium point because it now h ...
