Equation of motion for system of springs
I need to find the equations of motion for the following system.
If $x_1$ is $m_1$'s extension and $x_2$ is $m_2$'s, then, I feel like for $m_1$ we just need to consider $x_1$ giving $$m_1 a_1 = x_1 ...

Spring Constant - Waves
I tried to prove that for the same length of spring , a one dimensional wave that moves faster in spring 2 than spring 1, its spring constant will be lower than the spring constant of spring 1.
That'...
