For the spring assemblage with arbitrarily numbered nodes shown in Figure, obtain (a) the global stiffness matrix, (b)
the displacements of nodes 3 and 4,(c) the reaction forces at nodes 1 and 2, and (d) the forces in each spring. A force
of 25 kN is applied at node 4 in the x direction. The spring constants are given in the figure. Nodes 1 and 2 are fixed.
