Problem 1: a) Derive a differential equation relating the input, force f(t), with the output, displacement x(t), for the system described by the following figure. (A dashpot/viscous damper and a spring connected to a mass with external force f(t) as input)
b) If damping coefficient fv = 2 N-s/m, spring constant K = 9 N/m, and mass of object m = 1kg, plug them into derived differential equation, and rewrite the differential equation.

Problem 2: The wheel of diameter D rotates on its axis as shown. The moment of inertia of the disk about the axis of rotation is J. Two linear springs with spring constant K are attached at the outer diameter as shown, such that the springs compress or extent when the wheel rotates. An external torque T(t) acts on the wheel. There is no damping. Derive a differential equation relating the input torque T to the angular displacement θ as a function of time. You can assume that θ is small.

Problem 3: A non-linear spring can be described by F = x+0.1*x^3. Determine a linearization for the spring about the points x=1 and x=3 as shown in the figures. i.e. determine the slope of the red dashed line. You must show your work. (Hint: the answer to one of the problems is F = 3.66x).

Problem 4: A robot arm rotate in the XY plane as shown below (horizontal plane, i.e. gravity acts in Z direction). The motor applies a torque T to the arm. Assume a viscous damping torque with coefficient D. Derive a differential equation relating the input, torque T, with the output, angular displacement θ.
