A sensitive electrical measurement device needs to operate near heavy equipment that cause the table the device sits on to vibrate vertically. Whenever the vibration happens the measuring device seems to have erratic readings. A thoughtful ISU graduate has the idea to put springs between the device and the table as shown, to reduce the device's vibration. The weight of the instrument is 500 Newtons. An accelerometer is temporarily attached to the table. The acceleration of this base is 6.075 m/s2 at a frequency of 7.2 Hz. Determine the total mounting spring stiffness needed to reduce the vertical displacement of the measuring device by 70% Assuming any damping is very small
