PART B
1. A machine part of mass 2 kg vibrates in a viscous medium. Determine the damping coefficient
when a harmonic exciting force of 25 N results in resonant amplitude of 12.5 mm with a period of
0.2 second. If the system is excited by a harmonic force of frequency 4 Hz, what will be the
percentage increase in amplitude of vibration when damper is removed as compared with that with
damping? (April/May-2018)
2. A single-cylinder engine of total mass 200 kg is to be mounted on an elastic support which permits
vibratory movement in vertical direction only. The mass of the piston is 3.5 kg and has a vertical
reciprocating motion which may be assumed simple harmonic with a stroke of 150 mm. It is
desired that the maximum vibratory force transmitted through the elastic support to the foundation
shall be 600 N when the engine speed is 800 r.p.m. and less than this at all higher speeds 1) Find
the necessary stiffness of the elastic support and the amplitude of vibration at 800 r.p.m., and 2) If
the engine speed is reduced below 800 r.p.m. at what speed will the transmitted force again
becomes 600 N? (April/May-2018)
3. A single-cylinder vertical petrol engine of total mass of 200 kg is mounted upon a steel chassis
frame. The vertical static deflection of the frame is 2.4 mm due to the weight of the engine. The
mass of the reciprocating parts is 18 kg and the stroke of the piston is 160 mm with SHM. If
dashpot of damping coefficient of 1 N/mm/s is used to dampen the vibrations, calculate at steady
state, the amplitude of forced vibrations at 500 rpm engine speed and the speed of driving shaft at
which resonance will occur. (Nov/Dec

4. A compressor supported symmetrically on four springs has a mass of 100 kg. The mass of the
reciprocating parts is 2 kg which move through a vertical stroke of 80 mm with SHM. Neglecting
damping, determine the combined stiffness of the springs so that the force transmitted to the
foundation is 1/25th of the impressed force. The machine crankshaft rotates at 1000 rpm. When the
compressor is actually supported on springs, it is found that the damping reduces the amplitude of
successive free vibrations by 25%. Find the force transmitted to the foundations at 1000 rpm, the
force transmitted to the foundation at resonance and the amplitude of the vibrations at resonance

5. A vehicle of mass 1200 kg is travelling on a road, the surface of which various. Sinusoidally with
on amplitude of 0.05 m and wave length of 6m.the suspension system has a spring constant of 400
KN/m and a damping factor of 0.5. if the vehicle speed is 100km/hr. , determine the displacement
amplitude of the vehicle (April/May-2017)
