Homework Statement
Given the equation mx''+cx=cAsin(Ωt) with the initial conditions x(0)=0 and x'(0)=0.
Solve the initial value problem for the case when Ω < ω and show that |x(t)| < H provided
A < H(1-(Ω/ω)).
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
For my solution to the equation I got x(t)=(Aω/(ω^2-Ω^2))[ωsin(Ωt)-Ωsin(ωt)]
So, I'm hoping that this is right which I found using x(t)=x_h+x_p.
But I'm completely confused about the second part to show that |x(t)| < H provided
A < H(1-(Ω/ω)).
This is my first post here, so apologies if I'm not doing it right. :shy:
Thanks in advance.
