Assignment #5 — Vibrations

1/ A spring has a stiffness of 600 N/m. If a 4-kg block is attached to the spring, pushed 50
mm above its equilibrium position, and released from rest, determine the equation which
describes the block’s motion. Assume that positive displacement is measured downward.
Ans: x = -0.05 cos (12.2t) m

2/ The 50-kg block is suspended from the 10-kg


pulley that has a radius of gyration about its
center of mass of 125 mm. If the block is given a
small vertical displacement and then released,
determine the natural frequency of oscillation.
Ans: ɷn = 9.47 rad/s

3/ The block has a mass m and is supported


by a rigid bar of negligible mass. If the spring
has a stiffness k, determine the natural period
of vibration for the block.

Ans:
τ =2 π ( ab ) √ mk
4/ The 50-kg spool is attached to two springs. If
the spool is displaced a small amount and
released, determine the natural period of
vibration. The radius of gyration of the spool is
kG = 1.5 m. The spoll rolls without slipping.

Ans: τ= 4.79 s

5/ If a block D of negligible size and of mass m is


attached at C, and the bell crank of mass M is
given a small angular displacement of θ, the
natural period of oscillation is τ1.
When D is removed, the natural period of
oscillation is τ2. Determine the bell crank’s radius
of gyration about its center of mass, pin B, and
the spring’s stiffness k. The spring is
unstrectched at θ=0, and the motion occurs in the
horizontal plane.

6/ The uniform rod has a mass m and is


supported by the pin O. If the rod is given a
small displacements and released, determine
the natural period of vibration. The springs
are unstretched when the rod is in the position
shown.

Ans:

7/ A uniform board is supported on two wheels


which rotate in opposite directions at a constant
angular speed. If the coefficient of kinetic
friction between the wheels and board is µ,
determine the frequency of vibration of the
board if it is displaced slightly, a distance x
from the midpoint between the wheels, and
released.

Ans:

8/ The 20-kg disk, is pinned at its mass center


O and supports the 4-kg block A. If the belt
which passes over the disk is not allowed to
slip at its contacting surface, determine the
natural period of vibration of the system.
Ans: τ= 1.66 s

9/ The 10-kg disk is pin connected at its mass


center. Determine the natural period of
vibration of the disk if the springs have
sufficient tension in them to prevent the cord
from slipping on the disk as it oscillates. Hint:
Assume that the initial stretch in each spring
is δo
Ans: τ= 1.11 s

10/ Determine the differential equation of


motion of the 3-kg block when it is displaced
slightly and released. The surface is smooth
and the springs are originally unstretched.

11/ Determine the natural period of vibration of


the 3-kg sphere. Neglect the mass of the rod and
the size of the sphere.
Ans: τ= 0.487 s

12/ If the lower end of the 6-kg slender rod is


displaced a small amount and released from rest,
determine the natural frequency of vibration. Each
spring has a stiffness of k = 200 N/m and is
unstretched when the rod is hanging vertically.
Ans: f= 1.17 Hz

13/ A 5-kg block is suspended from a spring having a


stiffness of 300 N/m. If the block is acted upon by a
vertical force F=(7 sin 8 t ) N, where t is in seconds,
determine the equation which describes the motion of
the block when it is pulled down 100 mm from the
equilibrium position and released from rest at t=0.
Assume that positive displacement is downward.

Ans:

14/ The uniform rod has a mass of m. If it is acted


upon by a periodic force of
F=F sin wt
0 , determine
the amplitude of the steady-state vibration.

Ans:

15/ The 40-kg block is attached to a spring having a


stiffness of 800 N/m. A force F = (100 cos 2t) N,
where t is in seconds is applied to the block.
Determine the maximum speed of the block for the
steady-state vibration.
