Determine the response of the system of Figure P6.8 and Chapter Problem 6.43 to a unit impulse applied \(t\) to the right end or the machine tool using \(x\) and \(\theta\) as generalized coordinates.

Data From Chapter Problem 6.43:

Determine the response of the system of Figure P6.8 due to a unit impulse applied at the mass center. Use \(m=100 \mathrm{~kg}, I=4.5 \mathrm{~kg} \cdot \mathrm{m}^{2}, k=200,000 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\), \(c=500 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{s} / \mathrm{m}, b=2 \mathrm{~m}\), and \(a=1 \mathrm{~m}\).
