Abstract | How should our students think about external forcing in differential equations setting, and how can we help them gain intuition? To address this question, we share a variety of problems and projects that explore the dynamics of the undamped forced spring-mass system. We provide a sequence of discovery-based exercises that foster physical and mathematical intuition about polynomial forcing, as we build tools and techniques (including Green's function) to explore the amazing behavior of y[superscript n] + y(t) = tan(t). We encourage the insightful use of a Computer Algebra System, and provide a paired supplemental MAPLE worksheet. (As Provided). |
