____ 14. A spring has a mass of kg and its damping constant is . The spring starts from its
equilibrium position with a velocity of m/s. Graph the position function for the spring constant
. Select the correct answer.
a.
c.
b.
15. A spring with a 3-kg mass is held stretched 0.9 m beyond its natural length by a force of 30 N. If
the spring begins at its equilibrium position but a push gives it an initial velocity of m/s, find the
position x(t) of the mass after t seconds.
16. A series circuit consists of a resistor , an inductor with , a capacitor with
, and a -V battery. If the initial charge is 0.0008 C and the initial current is 0,
find the current I(t) at time t.
17. A series circuit consists of a resistor , an inductor with , a capacitor with
, and a generator producing a voltage of If the initial charge is
and the initial current is 0, find the charge at time t.
