Question: A double pendulum, defined by the parameters m 1 , m 2 and l , is , additionally, held by a rotational spring with stiffness

A double pendulum, defined by the parameters m1,m2 and l, is, additionally, held by a rotational spring with stiffness c, as shown in the figure below. The rotational spring is relaxed at the position 1=0.
Remark: ?(()c)os(1)cos(2)+sin(1)sin(2)=cos(1-2)
Given: ,m1=0,63kg,m2=0,37kg,l=0,2m,g=9,81ms-2,c=118kgs-2,
Insert the correct solution at an accurracy of four significant numbers into the corresponding fields:
a) Evaluate the potential energy of the system with respect to the given terms. (22?2 points)
=,cos(1)+,cos(2)+,sin2(1)
kgm2s-2
b) Evaluate the kinetic energy of the system with respect to the given terms. (22?2 points)
T=,1?2+,2?2+,12cos(1-2)
[kgm2s-2]
