Question

This is a part of a review I'm studying, NOT a graded assignment, please do not reject. Thank you!

Am I doing this problem right? I would like someone to verify I'm doing this correctly, thank you!

**Educational Content: Mechanical and Electrical System Analysis**

**Mechanical System Description:**

The mechanical system consists of two masses, \( M_1 \) and \( M_2 \), each weighing 1 kg. They are connected in series with springs \( k_1 \) and \( k_2 \) both having spring constants of 1 N/m. The system is subjected to damping forces \( fv_1 = 2 \, \text{N·s/m} \), \( fv_2 = 1 \, \text{N·s/m} \), and \( fv_3 = 1 \, \text{N·s/m} \). The velocities of the masses are \( v_1(t) \) and \( v_2(t) \). An external force \( f(t) \) is applied to the system.

**a) Differential Equations:**

1. \( f_{v1} = \frac{dv_1}{dt} (k_1, M_1) \)
2. \( f_{v2} = \frac{dv_2}{dt} (k_2, k_1, M_1, M_2) \)
3. \( f_{v3} = \frac{dv_3}{dt} \left( \frac{k_2}{M_2} \right) \)

The expression for the applied force \( f(t) \) is derived as:

\[ f(t) = \frac{dv_1}{dt} - k_1 M_1 + \frac{dv_2}{dt} (k_2, k_1, M_1, M_2) + \frac{dv_3}{dt} \left( \frac{k_1}{M_2} \right) \]

**b) Equivalent Electrical Circuit:**

The equivalent electrical circuit is drawn with the following components:

- An inductor \( M_1 \) representing mass \( M_1 \).
- Two capacitors representing the spring constants and damping.
- A voltage source, \( f(t) = V_{\text{out}} \), replaces the external force.
  
Note that the component remarked as "A gate, Not a Capacitor" replaces an element in the system.

This representation helps in understanding the analogous relationship between mechanical damped spring-mass systems and RLC circuits in electrical engineering.
