Question: Consider the spring - mass - damper system defined by ( all parameters are in SI units ) 3 x + 1 2 . 4

Consider the spring-mass-damper system defined by (all parameters are in SI units)
3x+12.47x+75x=15cos5t
Assume zero initial conditions. Complete following steps.
Part I
a. Determine if the system is underdamped, critically damped or overdamped.
b. Compute the steady-state response xp
c. Compute the transient response xn
d. Total response x(t)=xn+xp
f. Plot x(t)
Part II
a. Compute normalized magnitude x(r) of the system to harmonic excitation F0cost
b. Find xpeak and the corresponding rpeak and peak
c. Plot x(r)(hand sketch is not acceptable)
