Question:

Two blocks A and B, each of mass m, are supported as shown by three springs of the same constant k. Blocks A and B are connected by a dashpot and block B is connected to the ground by two dashpots, each dashpot having the same coefficient of damping c. Block A is subjected to a force of magnitude P = Pm sin ωft Write the differential equations defining the displacements xA and xB of the two blocks from their equilibrium positions.
