Question 1
What does the initial displacement x(0) represent in an SDOF system?
- Position at t=0
- Final position
- Velocity at t=0
💡 Hint: Think about the starting point of oscillation.
Question 2
True or False: Initial velocity has no effect on the amplitude of the vibration.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Consider how speed at the start influences oscillation.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A block on a spring has an initial displacement of 2 m and is released with an initial velocity of 5 m/s. Find the equation for its motion and explain each component.
💡 Hint: Use the formula involving initial conditions to build the motion equation.
Question 2
If the initial conditions of a system are altered such that the displacement is halved, but velocity doubles, derive the new equation of motion.
💡 Hint: Translate altered conditions into the motion equation format.
