Question: A mass ( m ) is placed at the tip of a cantilever beam with a length ( L ) ,

A mass \( m \) is placed at the tip of a cantilever beam with a length \( L \), elastic modulus E, and moment of inertia I. At the point where the mass is placed, the beam is also supported by a spring with a spring constant k and a damping element with a damping coefficient c. From the vibration data taken from the mass, it is observed that the vibration amplitude decreases to \(1/7\) of its initial value after 6 periods. Find the spring constant kkk of the added spring, neglecting the mass of the cantilever beam.
