Hi,
I have a question about damped oscillator. Actually, although I have read courses about oscillator, I couldn't solve this. I think this is very easy question :(
1. Homework Statement
Consider the solution for the damped ( but not driven ) oscillator,
x = e-[tex]\beta[/tex]t/2(Acos[tex]\omega[/tex]'t + Bsin[tex]\omega[/tex]'t)
= Re e-[tex]\beta[/tex]t/2[tex]\hat{x}[/tex]o,hei[tex]\omega[/tex]'t
where [tex]\hat{x}[/tex]o,h = |[tex]\hat{x}[/tex]o,h| ei[tex]\phi[/tex].
If the oscillator is at the position xo with velocity [tex]\vartheta[/tex]o at time t = 0, show that
A = xo
B = \frac{\frac{xo\beta}{2} + [tex]\vartheta[/tex]o}{[tex]\omega[/tex]'}
|[tex]\hat{x}[/tex]o,h| = [tex]\sqrt{A2 + B2}[/tex]
tan [tex]\phi[/tex] = -[tex]\frac{B}{A}[/tex]
2. Homework Equations
I know that
ei[tex]\phi[/tex] = cos [tex]\phi[/tex] + isin[tex]\phi[/tex]
[tex]\omega[/tex]'2 = [tex]\omega[/tex]o2 - [tex]\beta[/tex]2/4
3. The Attempt at a Solution
I tried to show the third equation. So I put A2 and B2 to the square root. And I changed [tex]\omega[/tex]'2 to [tex]\omega[/tex]o2 - [tex]\beta[/tex]2/4. But I couldn't reach the solution. Also I couldn't find A or B.
This is the first time I am using Latex. I hope I did no mistake.
Thanks for helping...
