    3-040-FirstPassageTime-ModelingScenario
    We apply the notions of dampedness to second order, linear, constant coefficient, homogeneous differential equations used to model a spring mass dashpot system and introduce the notion of first passage time through 0 value with several applications.

    3-030-SecondOrderIntro-ModelingScenario
    We outline the solution strategies involved in solving second-order, linear, constant coefficient ordinary differential equations, both homogeneous and nonhomogeneous and offer many application and modeling activities.

    3-090-OneSpringMass-ModelingScenario
    We lead students through building a mathematical model for a single mass (bob)-spring system that is hanging vertically. We also lead the students, using data that they collect together with their model to approximate the value of the spring...

    3-060-DataToDifferentialEquation-ModelingScenario
    Students use knowledge of second-order linear differential equations in conjunction with physical intuition of spring-mass systems to estimate the damping coefficient and spring constant from data.

    3-001-SpringMassDataAnalysis-ModelingScenario
    We offer data on position of a mass at end of spring over time where the spring mass configuration has damping due to taped flat index cards at the bottom of the mass. Modeling of a spring mass configuration and estimation of parameters are the core.

    3-010-EnergyInSpringMassSystem-ModlingScenario
    As a way to synthesize the effects of damping and forcing terms, this activity is meant to encourage students to explore how different forcing terms will change the total energy in a mass-spring system.

    3-091-SpringModeling-ModelingScenario
    In this lab students will collect data on their spring mass systems and compare their empirical models to their theoretical ones—giving them an opportunity to actually test a model against data.

    3-002-ModelsMotivatingSecondOrder-ModelingScenario
    Ordinary differential equations involve second derivatives and second derivatives appear in many contexts, chief among them are the study of forces and resulting motion. This is principally because of Newton's Second Law of Motion.

    3-026-SpringInverseProblem-ModelingScenario
    We are given data on the position of a mass in an oscillating spring mass system and we seek to discover approaches to estimating an unknown parameter.
