(a) An aircraft lift on an aircraft carrier can be modelled as a rack- and-gear system, shown in Figure Q2-a below. The mass of the spring is negligible. The system also consists of two identical gears of pitch radius r and centroidal mass moment of inertial J, a rack of mass M, a spring of stiffness k. funum WWW Man m 0 y Figure Q2-a (a-1) Use Rayleigh's energy method to derive the equation of motion of the vibration system with respect to the translational motion of mass M; (a-2) Determine system's natural frequency.
