A single degree-of-freedom linear elastic structure was subjected to a series of harmonic excitations, one at a time. The excitations had the same forcing magnitude but different forcing frequency. Forcing frequencies and observed peak steady-state displacements are shown in the graph below. Find the natural period and damping ratio of the structure.
