Question
a.) Use MATLAB and Euler's Method to numerically solve the equation of motion. How far does the mass travel from the starting point in 1s? 10s? 100s? 1000s? Describe this progression of distances. (Sure, you could integrate the DE above with no problem. But we have to save some tricks for later. Besides we will encounter some nasty DEs that you won't be able to solve neatly in closed form. At least I wouldn't be able to...)
b.) Print out your MATLAB script noting where you have customized it for this problem.
