Question:

Figure 4.65 shows a diver on a high board. The friction at the fixing point of the diving board can be assumed to correspond to a viscous damping constant of \(c\) and stiffness of the diving board can be assumed to be \(k\). The diver's mass can be treated as a point mass \(m\) (weight, \(m g)\). If \(f(t)\) denotes the external time-varying force applied, derive the equation of motion of the system. Explain the possible methods of estimating the values of \(m,

c, k\), and \(f(t)\) of the system.
