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. The world runs on second-order differential equations and the solutions depend on the quadratic equation!!!It is true.Motion requires forces and the forces acting on a body can be accounted for in two ways: (1) the mass of the body times the acceleration it possesses and (2) the s…
