Interact on desktop, mobile and cloud with the free Wolfram Player or other Wolfram Language products.
You can observe how the trajectory of a harmonic oscillator in phase space evolves in time and how it depends on the characteristic values of the oscillator: the amplitude , the frequency , and the damping constant . In addition, the energy as a function of time is shown.
