Consider a mass m that oscillates at the end of a spring having a spring constant.The following second-order differential equation describes the vertical displacement y of this spring-mass system. This differential equation neglects the influence of air resistance or frictional forces.Find the general solution which describes the vertical displacement of this spring as a function of time.
