Question: 2 . A machine weighing 2 0 0 0 N rests on a support. The support deflects 5 cm as a result of the weight

2. A machine weighing 2000 N rests on a support. The support deflects 5 cm as a result of the weight of the machine. The floor under the support is somewhat flexible and moves because of the motion of a nearby machine, harmonically at resonance with an amplitude of 0.2 cm . Model the floor as a moving base and assume a damping ratio \(\zeta=0.01\). Calculate
(a) the amplitude of the displacement at resonance
(b) the amplitude of the displacement at 0.75 times the resonant frequency.
\[
A=0.2\mathrm{~cm}
\]
