    3-072-EarthQuakePartI-ModelingScenario
    This modeling scenario considers a one-story building as a simple structure; the roof is modeled as a single point mass. Movement of the roof can be modeled similar to a mass-spring system.

    Your goal here is to determine how much friction/damping should be designed into a building to keep the roof from moving too far (which would result in the entire building collapsing) when it undergoes minor vibrations from a small earthquake.

    When projectiles are way above Earth's surface gravity's changes become important when dealing with projectiles at high altitudes. We lay out an approach for such a case which is a second-order differential equation.
