HW5_3 Three carts, interconnected by springs, are subject to the loads P1, P2 and P3, as shown in the figure.
The displacements of the carts, u1, uz & u3, are governed by the equilibrium equations:
Let k;=k;=k3= 25 N/m, k=ks=10 N/m, ks=5 N/m, k;=ks=2
N/m Let P1=P2=P3 = 2N. Solve for the displacements.
Present the results in a complete sentence using
fprintf
