A spring system is made of 4 springs which are connected through two nodes. Both ends of the spring system are fixed. Let q1 and q2 represent the displacements at Node 1 and Node 2, and let F1 and F2 represent the nodal forces at Node 1 and Node 2. Note that the stiffness matrix K is expressed in terms of spring constants k1, k2, and k3. Write down the matrix equation in the form Kx = f, where x = [q1, q2] and f = [F1, F2]. No need to solve the equation.

A damped spring mass system with values of c = 100 kg/s, m = 100 kg, and k = 910 N/m, is subjected to a force of 10 cos (3t) N. The system is also subjected to initial conditions: x0 = 0.001 m and v0 = 0.02 mm/s. The value of the the amplitude of the transient response form of the system is given by?
