| Aug 7, 2016 at 12:59 | comment | added | Feyre | So, you are trying to solve a differential equation where a particle undergoes a position dependent force? | |
| Aug 7, 2016 at 12:56 | comment | added | george2079 | you obviously don't want to define x before you solve for it anyway. Your equation is second order F=m x''[t], hope that helps. (I assume F is force, though you don't actually say that ). I,ll add your attempt looks like you are trying to make some use of some constant acceleration expressions. Your acceleration is most definately not constant, you cant use those. | |

| Aug 7, 2016 at 12:03 | comment | added | Dylan Solms | Cool. Not homework. I have free time and am trying to learn Mathematica. Found this Physics problem but it seems a bit hard for me. Didn't realize ClearAll[x] does this. Just saw it being used... | |
| Aug 7, 2016 at 11:53 | comment | added | mattiav27 | Also if this is an homework, you should the appropriate tag... | |
| Aug 7, 2016 at 11:52 | comment | added | mattiav27 | So you define x[t_] := (F[x]/(2*m))*t^2 + x'[t]*t + x0 then you ClearAll[x]? This clears you definition, or am I lost? | |
