Claim: Hummingbirds have unusually large hearts for their size. If a person's heart were as big as a hummingbird's, their heart would weigh as much as a large dog. Information: An average hummingbird weighs 0.3521oz and has a heart that weighs 0.00875oz. One pound = 16oz. The average weight of a large dog is usually more than 80lbs.
Questions: Leo weighs 192lbs
a) How much would Leo's heart weigh if it were in the same ratio as the hummingbird?
b) Is the original claim true or false? Please justify!

Amass weighing 16 pounds stretches a spring 8/3 feet. the mass is initially released from rest from a point 2 feet below the equilibrium position, and the subsequent motion takes place in a medium that offers a damping force that is numerically equal to 1/2 the instantaneous velocity. find the equation of motion if the mass is driven by an external force equal to f(t)=cos(2t).
