Question: Problem 3 ( 4 0 points ) : Consider the 2 - DOF system shown in Figure 3 and answer the following questions: 1 -

Problem 3(40 points):
Consider the 2-DOF system shown in Figure 3 and answer the following questions:
1- The equations of motion of this system are given by:
{[1],[2]}+[2+22-22-222+22]{[1],[2]}=1ml2{[T1(t)],[T2(t)]}
where =gl2 and =km2 are the two nominal natural frequencies for a simple pendulum of length l and a mass-spring system, respectively; and =al is the length ratio. Then, calculate the two natural frequencies and corresponding modal vectors with depiction of mode shapes.
2- Determine the value of a when the pendulum on the right is used as a vibration absorber for the harmonic torques T1(t)=ml2T0cost and T2(t)=0 such that the steady-state amplitude of 1(t)=0. What is the resulting steady-state amplitude of 2(t)?
