I'll solve this differential equation problem and create visualizations for you.

First, let me analyze the equation and find the relationship between the parameters and ω₀.

Perfect! I've solved your differential equation and created the requested visualization.

Key Findings:

Mathematical Solution: For the proposed solution x = A₀ cos(ω₀t) to satisfy the differential equation, ω₀ must satisfy:

p₆ω₀⁶ + p₂ω₀² - 1 = 0

This is derived by substituting the solution and its derivatives into the original equation.

Main Observations:

  1. Effect of p₂: As p₂ increases from 1 to 10, ω₀ decreases for all values of p₆
  2. Effect of p₆: Higher values of p₆ result in lower frequencies (ω₀) for any given p₂
  3. Special case (p₆ = 0): The equation simplifies to ω₀ = √(1/p₂), which is the standard harmonic oscillator
  4. High p₂ limit: All curves converge as p₂ increases, meaning the 6th derivative term becomes less significant

The graph shows five curves corresponding to the different p₆ values, with the blue curve (p₆ = 0) representing the highest frequencies and the orange curve (p₆ = 1) showing the lowest frequencies.

I'll update the analysis to use p2 ranging from 0.1 to 10 instead of 1 to 10.

Perfect! I've updated the analysis with p2 ranging from 0.1 to 10.

Key Results:

The graph now shows the complete behavior across a wider range of p2 values, revealing some interesting features:

At low p2 values (0.1 - 1):

  • The curves are more spread out, showing significant differences between different p6 values
  • For p6 = 0 at p2 = 0.1: ω₀ ≈ 3.16 (quite high)
  • The 6th derivative term has a much stronger effect on the frequency

At high p2 values (5 - 10):

  • All curves converge together
  • The effect of p6 becomes minimal
  • The system behavior is dominated by the second derivative term

Key Observations:

  1. Inverse relationship: ω₀ follows approximately ω₀ ≈ √(1/p2) when p6 is small
  2. Strong p6 effect at low p2: The difference between p6 = 0 and p6 = 1 is dramatic at p2 = 0.1 (3.16 vs 0.98)
  3. Convergence: As p2 increases, the effect of the 6th derivative term becomes negligible
  4. Physical interpretation: Low p2 means weak second derivative (acceleration) damping, so the higher-order p6 term has more influence on the oscillation frequency

The expanded range clearly shows the transition from a regime where the 6th derivative matters significantly (low p2) to one where it becomes almost irrelevant (high p2).
