Gderive equations of motion for masses m1 and m2. for the dashpot (dampers), you can use your physical intuition to find the associated generalized forces. alternatively, you can use the definition of generalized forces discussed in lecture. assume rest length of springs is zero.

Describe one experiment in which the glass transition temperature and melting temperature of a totally amorphous thermoplastic material can be determined. show the relevant experimental results in a diagram which should be properly annotated with the two temperatures clearly marked. what is likely to happen to the curve in the diagram if the amorphous polymer is replaced by a thermosetting type?
