Suppose a cart of mass 2 kg is attached by a spring of constant k = 1 to a cart of mass 3 kg, which is attached to the wall by a spring also of constant k = 1. Suppose that the initial position of the first cart is 6 meters in the positive direction from the rest position, and the second mass starts at the rest position. The masses are not moving and are let go. Find the position of the second mass as a function of time.
