Understand how to find the equation of motion of a particle undergoing uniform circular motion. Consider a particle--the small red block in the figure--that is constrained to move in a circle of radius R. We can specify its position solely by θ(t), the angle that the vector from the origin to the block makes with our chosen reference axis at time t. Following the standard conventions we measure θ(t) in the counterclockwise direction from the positive x axis. (Figure 1)...

This time, you are asked to analyze the time dependent behavior of two masses (m, and m.) connected by a massless spring. You may assume that the spring is linear, has a spring constant k and a free length of L. That is if the spring is stretched to length L' > Lit exerts a compressive force of magnitude (L' L). However, if compressed, ie., L' <Lit exerts an expansion force of magnitude (L-1). In Newtonian Mechanics, motion of the...
