- Find the transfer function, G(s) = θ4(s)/T(s) for the rotational system shown in the figure.arrow_forwardFor each of the systems shown in Figure P4.52, the input is the force f andthe outputs are the displacements x1 and x2 of the masses. The equilibriumpositions with f = 0 correspond to x1 = x2 = 0. Neglect any friction betweenthe masses and the surface. Derive the equations of motion of the systems.arrow_forwardFrom the mechanical system with translational motion shown in figure a, Find the transfer function Y1(s)/F(s)arrow_forward
- MECHANICAL VIBRATIONS The system shown in Fig. P3.3 consists of a uniform rod which has length 1, mass m, and mass moment of inertia about its mass center 1. The rod is supported by two springs which have stiffness coefficients ky and k2, as shown in the figure. Determine the system differential equation of motion for small oscillations. Determine also the system natural frequency.arrow_forwardIn the system shown in Figure 1, assume that the rod pivoted at point P is massless and perfectly rigid. A mass m is attached to the other end of the rod and supported by a damper at distance L, and a spring at a distance L2 to the pivot point P. The displacement x of the mass is measured from the equilibrium position of the system. Assuming that x is small, obtain the equation of motion of the system by applying Newton's laws.arrow_forward'A model for the elbow joint models the bicep muscle connecting to the horizontal forearm by a vertical tendon 4cm from the elbow joint. A mass m is held in the hand 30cm from the elbow joint. If the maximum tension that can be exerted by the tendon before injury occurs is 2250N, find the maximum mass that can be held in this way.'
