Chapter 19.2, Problem 19.46P
A three-blade wind turbine used for research is supported on a shaft so that it is free to rotate about O. One technique to determine the centroidal mass moment of inertia of an object is to place a known weight at a known distance from the axis of rotation and to measure the frequency of oscillations after releasing it from rest with a small initial angle. In this case, a weight of Wadd = 50 lb is attached to one of the blades at a distance R = 20 ft from the axis of rotation. Knowing that when the blade with the added weight is displaced slightly from the vertical axis, and the system is found to have a period of 7.6 s, determine the centroidal mass moment of inertia of the three-blade rotor.

A 11-lb wheel is mounted on a 2-lb plate whose center is attached to a 1.6 in diameter, 30 in long (G = 11606.22 kips/in^2) steel bar, which is fixed at its other end_ The centroidal polar moment of inertia of the plate is 220 slugs-in^2. The period of torsional oscillation of this assembly is 0.15 s. What is the polar moment of inertia of the wheel?
(a) A mass suspended from a helical spring of stiffness s, is displaced by a distance x from its equilibrium position and allowed to vibrate. Show that the motion is simple harmonic. (b) A vertical helical spring having a stiffness of 1540 N/m is clamped at its upper end and carries a mass of 20 kg attached to the lower end. The mass is displaced vertically through a distance of 120 mm and released. Find : 1. Frequency of oscillation ; 2. Maximum velocity reached ; 3. Maximum acceleration; and 4. Maximum value of the inertia force on the mass. (c) A 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 dashpot at unit velocity ; 2. the ratio of the frequency of the damped vibration to the…
A thin cylindrical rod of uniform mass m and length L is suspended from the ends by two massless springs with constants k1 and k2 (Distance L1 and L2 on either side of the center of mass of the rod). The motion of the center of mass is constrained to move up and down parallel to the vertical y-axis. It also experiences rotational oscillations around an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through the center of mass (I is the moment of inertia with respect to said axis). be y1 and y2 the displacements of the two ends from their equilibrium positions, as shown in Fig.

- A beam of constant cross-section, made of a uniform material, is supported by two springs at the A and B ends. Both springs are given as constant k. The vertical oscillation period is 0.83 seconds if no object is placed on the beam. When an object with a mass of 50 kg is placed in the center of the beam, the vertical oscillation period increases to 1.52 seconds. Calculate the stiffness wich is k of both springs, and the mass of the beam.arrow_forwardWhen a tree branch bends, it can be assumed that acts as a spring, i.e there is a restoring force −kx in response to a vertical deflection x. Internal friction of wood provides the dominant cushioning and is independent of the hanging mass, that is, F = −bẋ with b constant. We observe that a monkey of mass m1 hangs from the branch. East monkey oscillates many times, up and down before damping off appreciably, and coming to equilibrium. Then a second monkey of mass m2 hangs from the first monkey, and we observe that the monkeys together also oscillate several times before the branch reaches equilibrium. So the new equilibrium position of the branch is three times larger than with a single monkey. Besides, the energy loss per cycle for a monkey is half that of the loss with two monkeys. Based on these observations, determine the mass of each monkey (m1 and m2) in terms of a elastic constant k of the branch and a friction coefficient of the wood b.
