The governing differential equation of a forced harmonic oscillation of a damped mass-spring system is given by mx" + cx' + kx = p(t) where m is the mass, c is the damping coefficient, k is the spring coefficient and p(t) is the forcing function. For m = 1 kg, c = 6 kg/s, k = 45 N/m, p(t) = cos5t (N), x(0) = 0 and x'(0) = 0, find the oscillation of the system between 0-5s. Use Laplace transform in your solution. -x(1) ww p(1)
