i=c(dv/dt)
Make sense
V=(1/k) (df/dt)
For a given velocity smaller spring will build less force
i=c(dv/dt)
With a given current ,for a given time, smaller capacitor will build up more voltage
Every loop in the electrical circuit becomes a point in the mechanical system.
1-Label all currents. Choose currents so that only one current flows through inductors.

Procedure for Conversion from Electrical to Mechanical To apply this analogy, every node in the electrical circuit becomes a point in the mechanical system.
3-Re-write the equations using analogs (make each electrical node being replaced by a position).
