Solution Summary

For a given stiff spring displacement, velocity and acceleration are estimated in this solution.

Solution Preview

s = a (e^−kt) sin 2πft

velocity,
v = ds/dt = a * { e^(-kt) * cos(2pi f t) * 2pi f - k e^(-kt) * sin(2pi f t)} = a * e^(-kt) * {cos(2pi f t) * 2pi f - k * sin(2pi f t)}

acceleration,
A = dv/dt = a * [e^(-kt) * ...
