Question: Problem 8 ( 2 0 ' ) A 2 - degree - of - freedom system has the following equation of motion [ m 0

Problem 8(20')
A 2-degree-of-freedom system has the following equation of motion
[m002m](x1x2)+[k-2k-2k4k](x1x2)=(00)
Where m and k have units of kg and Nm, respectively. This system is given a set of initial condition of x1(0)=x2(0)=x1(0)=0 and x2(0)=V, where V has unit of msec.
Determine:
the natural frequency of system (5')
mode shapes of the system. (5')
3) the response x(t) for t>0.(10')
