Question: Problem 3 : In lecture, is was shown that equation of motion for a damped forced mechanical oscillator with harmonic forcing is m d 2

Problem 3:
In lecture, is was shown that equation of motion for a damped forced mechanical oscillator with
harmonic forcing is
md2xdt2+cdxdt+kx=Focos(t)
a) Use the Method of Undetermined Coefficients to show that the particular solution xp(t) is
xp(t)=(Fok)cos(t+p)42(o)2+[1-(o)2]22, such that ,o=km2, and ,=c4mk2
by assuming that the solutions is of the form
xp(t)=acos(t)+bsin(t)
Note: show all steps
b) The ratio AFok is often called the Dynamic Magnification Factor (DMF)
AFok=142(o)2+[1-(o)2]22
On same log-log plot, plot the variation of DMF with respect to o within the range
0.1o10, for the following damping ratios, :0,0.05,0,1,0.2,0.5, and 1.0.
What the effect of damping ratio on DMF?
Problem 3 : In lecture, is was shown that
