Question

Three masses are connected to two springs as shown. Write Newton's Second Law for each mass using the coordinates shown. Each coordinate is the distance from equilibrium. Assume that x1(t)=A1e^iwt and x2(t)=A2e^iwt and x3(t)=A3e^iwt. Substitute those expressions in and solve the eigenvalue problem. Find the eigenvalues and the unnormalized eigenvectors. Describe each mode physically.

The picture is a set of horizontal masses and springs m (connected by k spring) M (connected by k spring) m. where x1 points from the lefthand m to M, x2 points from M to m and x3 points from m to the right
