The diagram below represents a three degree of freedom system, with the following equation of motion:

M x with.. on top plus K x equals 0

Where M element of straight real numbers to the power of 3 cross times 3 end exponent is the mass matrix and K element of straight real numbers to the power of 3 cross times 3 end exponent is the stiffness matrix.

Assume that m subscript 1 equals m subscript 3 equals 225 kg, m subscript 2 equals 115 kg, k subscript 1 equals k subscript 5 equals 30 N/m, k subscript 2 equals k subscript 3 equals 45 N/m and k subscript 4 equals 15 N/m.

What line(s) of MATLAB code can be used to calculate the eigenvalues and mode shapes of the system from the mass and stiffness matrix?

Hint: The output must be a diagonal matrix, D element of straight real numbers to the power of 3 cross times 3 end exponent, containing the eigenvalues and an orthogonal matrix, U element of straight real numbers to the power of 3 cross times 3 end exponent, holding the mode shapes in its columns. There may be more than one correct answer.
