a) Consider the ODE describing the motion of a pendulum in presence of friction. Let 0 indicate the angle of the pendulum with respect to the vertical line and let t indicate the time. The ODE describing the motion of the pendulum is given by mtô = -mg sin 0 - y0, with 0 E [-x/2, a/2].

The oscillatory movement of a simple pendulum is a characteristic of the regular repetition of displacements around an equilibrium position. The pendulum swings due to the restored force of gravity, which seeks to bring the mass back to the equilibrium point. The oscillatory behavior is described by a trigonometric solution, which relates the pendulum's position to time, considering its amplitude, frequency and initial phase. Statement: A simple pendulum moves according to the following question:y(t) = A.sin(ωt + φ)In this question, y(t) is the horizontal position of the pendulum, A is its amplitude, ω is its angular velocity, given by ω = 2πf, and φ is the initial phase of the movement, in radians. Since the initial phase of the movement is equal to 0 and its angular velocity is π/2 rad/s, the oscillation frequency of this pendulum is correctly given by the alternative: a) 2.0Hz b) 1.5Hz c) 1.0Hz d) 0.5Hz e) 0.25Hz
Question 3: A pendulum is oscillating back and forward. The distance between one end of the swing to the other is 45 cm and the object takes 4 s to complete 5 cycles. For the first few cycles the motion can be modelled by a sinusoidal function, where d is the distance from the mean position, d(t) in cm, and t is time in seconds. Consider the first 2 cycles only. Create an equation to model this situation. Sketch the graph and then solve for how often the pendulum is at least 10 cm from its mean position.
