MAT 275 Test 2 SOLUTIONS, FORM A For the following multiple-choice problems below, write the letter of the correct answer on the blank to the right of the problem. Make sure your answer is clearly legible, or it will be counted wrong. There is no partial credit for these problems. Each is worth 5 points. 1.

[15 points] A mass of 25 kilograms is attached to a spring whose constant is 30 N/m. The mass is started in motion from the equilibrium position with an initial velocity of 250 cm/sec in the upward direction. Assume there is no air resistance. Set up the initial value problem governing the position y(t) of the mass, assuming that the position is measured in meters and time in seconds. DO NOT SOLVE THIS EQUATION. Solution: The basic equation for vibration is my 00 + γy + ky = f (t), where m is the mass, γ is the air resistance factor, k is the spring constant, and f (t) is due to any force other than gravity, air resistance, or the spring. Here, m = 25, γ = 0, k = 30, and f (t) = 0. Since the initial position is the equilibrium position, y(0) = 0. The initial velocity must be converted into meters (by dividing by 100), with downward velocities being positive and negative velocities upward.

Multiplying the first equation by 2 and adding that (new) equation to the equation for y 0 (0) yields 21 = 7C1 or C1 = 3; substituting this information into either equation and solving for C2 produces C2 = −5.

Solution: Starting off with y = At sin(3t) + Bt cos(3t), taking derivatives twice yields y 0 = 3At cos(3t) + A sin(3t) − 3Bt sin(3t) + B cos(3t), y 00 = 3A cos(3t) − 9At sin(3t) + 3A cos(3t) − 3B sin(3t) − 9Bt cos(3t) − 3B sin(3t). Now you can either substitute these formulas into the differential equation, or just compare coefficients.

However, e3t is a solution to the homogeneous equation, so you need to multiply Ae3t + Bte3t by t to get a useable form. (te3t is not a solution to the homogeneous equation. 3.

Solution: The roots of the characteristic equation are 3 (with multiplicity 2), 5, and −4 ± √ √ 42 − 4 · 7 = −2 ± 3 i, 2 so the form of the solution is y(x) = C1 e3x + C2 xe3x + C3 e5x + C4 e−2x sin √ √ 3 x + C5 e−2x cos 3x . (The variable t could have been used instead of x, even though it was stated that y = erx .) Graded on a 0 − 3 − 5 − 7 − 10-point basis. 6. [15 points] A mass of 35 kilograms is attached to a spring whose constant is 10 N/m. The mass is started in motion from the equilibrium position with an initial velocity of 50 cm/sec in the downward direction. Assume there is no air resistance. Set up the initial value problem governing the position y(t) of the mass, assuming that the position is measured in meters and time in seconds. DO NOT SOLVE THIS EQUATION. Solution: The basic equation for vibration is my 00 + γy + ky = f (t), where m is the mass, γ is the air resistance factor, k is the spring constant, and f (t) is due to any force other than gravity, air resistance, or the spring. Here, m = 35, γ = 0, k = 10, and f (t) = 0. Since the initial position is the equilibrium position, y(0) = 0.
