Vector Mechanics For Engineers
- A 11-lb block is attached to the lower end of a spring whose upper end is fixed and vibrates with a period of 7.2 s. Knowing that the constant k of a spring is inversely proportional to its length (e.g., if you cut a 10 lb/in. spring in half, the remaining two springs each have a spring constant of 20 lb/in.), determine the period of a 7-lb block that is attached to the center of the same spring if the upper and lower ends of the spring are fixed.arrow_forwardA 180-kg motor is bolted to a light horizontal beam. The unbalance of its rotor is equivalent to a 28-g mass located 150 mm from the axis of rotation, and the static deflection of the beam due to the weight of the motor is 12 mm. The amplitude of the vibration due to the unbalance can be decreased by adding a plate to the base of the motor. If the amplitude of vibration is to be less than 60 μm for motor speeds above 300 rpm, determine the required mass of the plate.arrow_forwardA 45-kg motor is bolted to a light horizontal beam that has a static deflection of 6 mm due to the weight of the motor. The unbalance of the motor is equivalent to a mass of 110 g located 75 mm from the axis of rotation. Knowing that the amplitude of the vibration of the motor is 0.25 mm at a speed of 300 rpm, determine (a) the damping factor c/cc(b) the coefficient of damping c.arrow_forward
- A slender 10-kg bar AB with a length of l = 0.6 m is connected to two collars of negligible weight. Collar A is attached to a spring with a constant of k = 1.5 kN/m and can slide on a horizontal rod, while collar B can slide freely on a vertical rod. Knowing that the system is in equilibrium when bar AB is vertical and that collar A is given a small displacement and released, determine the period of the resulting vibrations.arrow_forwardTwo springs of constants K1 and K2 are connected in series to a block A that vibrates in simple harmonic motion with a period of 5 s. When the same two springs are connected in parallel to the same block, the block vibrates with a period of 2 s. Determine the ratio K1/K2 of the two spring constants.arrow_forwardA spring of stiffness 2 kN/m is suspended vertically and two equal masses of 4 kg each are attached to the lower end. One of these masses is suddenly removed and the system oscillates. Determine a) The amplitude of vibration, b) the frequency of vibration, and c) the velocity and acceleration of the mass when passing through half amplitude position.arrow_forward
- A spring-mass-damper system has a mass of 80 kg suspended from a spring having stiffness of 1000 N/m and a viscous damper with a damping coefficient of 80 N-s/m. If the mass is subjected to a periodic disturbing force of 50 N at an undamped natural frequency, determine (i) The undamped natural frequency. (ii) The damped natural frequency. (iii) The amplitude of forced vibration of mass. (iv) The phase difference.arrow_forwardA 91-kg machine element supported by four springs, each of constant k = 175 N/m, is subjected to a periodic force of frequency 0.8 Hz and amplitude 89 N. Determine the amplitude of the fluctuating force transmitted to the foundation if (a ) a dashpot with a coefficient of damping c=365 N.s/m is connected to the machine element and to the ground, (b) the dashpot is removed.arrow_forwardFor a steady-state vibration with damping under a harmonic force, show that the mechanical energy dissipated per cycle by the dashpot is where is the coefficient of damping, xm is the amplitude of the motion, and wf is the circular frequency of the harmonic force.arrow_forward
- A 360-lb motor is supported by springs of total constant 12.5 kips/ft. The unbalance of the rotor is equivalent to a 0.9-oz weight located 7.5 in. from the axis of rotation. Determine the range of speeds of the motor for which the amplitude of the fluctuating force exerted on the foundation is less than 5 lb.arrow_forwardA machine of mass 75 kg is mounted on springs and is fitted with a dashpot to damp out vibrations. There are three springs each of stiffness 10 N/mm and it is found that the amplitude of vibration diminishes from 38.4 mm to 6.4 mm in two complete oscillations. Assuming that the damping force varies as the velocity, determine : 1. the resistance of the dash-pot at unit velocity ; 2. the ratio of the frequency of the damped vibration to the frequency of the undamped vibration ; and 3. the periodic time of the damped vibration.arrow_forwardShow that for a small value of the damping factor c/cc , the maximum amplitude of a forced vibration occurs when Wf= Wn and that the corresponding value of the magnification factor is ½ (c/c2).arrow_forward
