3.1) Develop the equations of motion for the system ( under load F(t))
3.2) Determine the natural frequencies of the system
3.3) Scktch the corresponding mode shapes
3.4) Besides load F(t), the structure now experience an earthquake, the acceleration at the foundation is a=0.5gsin(t). Set up the equation of eauation for this case.
