Two 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.
A connecting rod is supported by a sharp edge at point A. For small oscillations, the angular acceleration of the connecting rod is governed by the relationship α = -6.5θ where α is expressed in rad/s2 and θ in radians. Knowing that the connecting rod is released from rest when θ = 46°,a) Determine the maximum angular velocity, in rad/s.
b) Determine the angular position, in degrees, when t = 2 seconds.
From mechanics of materials, it is known that for a simply supported beam of uniform cross section, a static load P applied at the center will cause a deflection of δA=PL3/48 EI, where L is the length of the beam, E is the modulus of elasticity, and I is the moment of inertia of the cross-sectional area of the beam. Knowing that L = 15 ft, E = 30 × 106 psi, and I = 2 × 10 3ft4, determine (a) the equivalent spring constant of the beam, (b) the frequency of vibration of a 1500-lb block attached to the center of the beam. Neglect the mass of the beam and assume that the load remains in contact with the beam.
