Question: apparent until a solution over time is attempted. Your project involves such a case. A mass m is constrained to the surface of a disk

apparent until a solution over time is attempted. Your project involves such a case.
A mass m is constrained to the surface of a disk of radius R by a
spring with spring constant k and unstretched length (R)/(2). The disk
lies in the horizontal plane (no gravity). The mass is attached to
the disk in a shallow groove so that it cannot leave the surface.
Constants for the problem are m=0.2kg,R=0.25m,k=1000
(N)/(m),\mu =0.15.
Write the equation of motion of the mass. Do not include the effect of friction.
a. Integrate the EOM for 1 second starting from rest at \theta (0)=(\pi )/(2) radians.
b. Plot \theta ,\theta ^(),\theta ^(), the normal force, and total energy of the mass versus time. What do
these plots mean physically and does that make sense? If not, why? Be specific.
Write the equation of motion of the mass including the effect of friction, with coefficient of
kinetic friction \mu . Typically we let f_(f)=\mu N((\theta ^()))/(|(\theta ^())|)=\mu Nsign(\theta ^()) so that friction opposes motion
as the sign of \theta ^() changes.
a. Integrate the EOM for 1 second starting from rest at \theta (0)=(\pi )/(2) radians.
b. Plot \theta ,\theta ^(),\theta ^(), the normal force, and total energy of the mass versus time. What do
these plots mean physically and does that make sense? If not, why? Be specific.
Improve the model so it behaves as you would anticipate the system behaving with friction.
What did you do or change?
a. Integrate the improved EOM for 1 second starting from rest at \theta (0)=(\pi )/(2) radians.
b. Plot \theta ,\theta ^(),\theta ^(), the normal force, and total energy of the mass versus time. What do
these plots mean physically and does that make sense? If not, why? Be specific. 4) Build an animation, in a single figure window with 3 subplots, that shows the motion of the 3 different systems for the 1 second of simulation time.
