Chapter 3, Problem 3.15P
Reproduce Figures 3-10b and c for the same values given in Example 3.2, but instead let β = 0.1 s−1 and δ = π rad. How many times does the system cross the x = 0 line before the amplitude finally falls below 10−2 of its maximum value? Which plot, b or c, is more useful for determining this number? Explain.
