"Calculate the trajectory of a mass with charge in a static electromagnetic field."
This was an exercise during my university studies. Lots of maths to finally find the cycloidal motion of the particle based on the differential equation set x''=omega*z', z''=a*omega^2 - omega*x'.
Simulation with the analog computer gives an impression of the behaviour when parameters are changing. Also adding initial speed (which was not part of the exercise) is really easy with fun.

1st image: the cycloidal motion.
2nd with added speed in x and z direction.
