4. Project Material You can develop a Java animation You can develop a Java animation  Problem: The Harmonic Oscilator 1. Consider a particle attached to a wall of infinit mass with a spring 2. The spring force given by F spring = -k·x 3. Newton’s second low of motion dictates the motion of the particle as, m·dx/dt= -k·x m·d 2 x/dt 2 = -k·x The idealized harmonic oscillator assumes that there is no loss in energy over time. The idealized harmonic oscillator assumes that there is no loss in energy over time.  Develop an applet showing the motion of the damped particle according to the equation m·dx/dt= -k·x –b ·dx/dt, m·d 2 x/dt 2 = -k·x –b ·dx/dt, where the coefficient b > 0 is called the damping coefficient where the coefficient b > 0 is called the damping coefficient
