Using the mass-spring analogy, predict the behavior as of the solution to the given initial value problem. Then confirm your prediction by actually solving the problem.
Discontinuous Forcing Term. In certain physical models, the nonhomogeneous term, or forcing term, g(t) in the equation
may not be continuous but may have a jump discontinuity. If this occurs, we can still obtain a reasonable solution using the following procedure. Consider the initial value problem;
Where,
