The forcing frequency that maximizes the amplitude of the steady-state solution of a lightly damped, forced oscillator is:

How many hours should you budget for this class?

The size of oscillations of the undamped, forced harmonic oscillator increases without bound in the resonance case.

A unit step function u_c, with c positive, inside a definite integral where the integration goes from 0 to infinity, has only one effect: it changes the integration interval to [c, infinity).
