Question # 2: Plot the position and the speed in separate graphs when value of r = 2 & 3.
Source code same as previous with value of r = 2 & 3 When r = 2,

When r = 3,

Question # 3:

Superpose the results and compare with the linear case r=1 and plot all three cases in the same plot window.

Question # 4: Change the values of each parameters, such as

Compare the results and describe the effects. Answer: Source code and functions are same as question just values are changed. Changing the value of mass M,

When co-efficient of friction B is changed,

When the value of elastic characteristic K is changed,

When Force Fa is changed,
