The mechanically vibrating system and the circuit shown above are "equivalent," because each can be described by the same differential equation. The mass, spring and damping element (i.e., the dashpot) correspond to the inductor, capacitor and resistor. The driving force corresponds to the voltage, the displacement of the mass to the charge on the capacitor, and the velocity to the current.
