You take your little sister in an amusement park and you bring her to the swing. You pull her two meters away from the position of equilibrium and you let her go. There is a uniform mild wind in the park. a) From your study of oscillators, can you predict the kind of motion she will describe?Motivate the reason (s) of your prediction. b) Please write down the general equation that will describe her motion. Please define the symbols used. c) Draw a general graph describing best this motion (position versus time). Please label it properly so that it is understandable by the reader.
