B) What is the natural frequency in terms of E, I, L, and M? Consider the beam mass to be negligible.

Using the solution of equation in the form x(t)=Bsinwt + Ccoswt calculate the values of B and C in terms of the initial conditions x0 and v0.
Plot x(t) for a damped system of natural frequency wn=2 rad/s and initial conditions x0=1mm, v0=1mm, for the folloiwng values of the damping ratio: 0.01, 0.2, 0.1, 0.4, and 0.8. For each of the values of the damping ratio, is the system underdamped, critically damped, or overdamped? What happened to the magnitude of the maximum amplitude of the response as the damping ratio increased in this example? Explain your answer.
A 2-kg mass connected to a spring of stiffness 10^3 N/m has a dry sliding friction force (Fd) of 3 N. As the mass oscillates, its amplitude decreases 20 cm. How long does this take?
A harmonic force of maximum value of 25 N and frequency of 180 cycles/min acts on a machine of 25 kg mass. Design a support system for the machine (i.e., choose c, k) so that only 10% of the force applied to the machine is transmitted to the base supporting the machine.

A vibrating mass of 300 kg, mounted on a massless support by a spring of stiffness 40,000 N/m and a damper of unknown damping coefficient, is observed to vibrate with a 10-mm amplitude while the support vibration has a maximum amplitude of only 2.5 mm (at resonance).

Given the following equation of motion for the system in the figure: xdoubdot + 50 xdot + 2000x = F(t) , solve for the steady state system response (Xp(t)) when F(t)=400 sin(62t).
To familiarize yourself with the nature of the forced response, plot the solution of a forced response of equation with w=2 rad/s, given by equation for a variety of values of the initial conditions and wn as given in the following chart.
A manufacturer makes a cantilevered leaf spring from steel (E= 2x10^11 N/m^2) and sizes the spring so that the decive has a specific frequency. Later, to save weight, the spring is made of aluminum (E=7.1x10^10 N/m^2). Assuming that the mass of the spring is much smaller than that of the device the spring is attached to, determine if the frequency increases or decreases and by how much.
It is important to understand the difference between area moment of inertia and mass MOI and when to use each. Do the following: A) From 1 C) above, if the steel rod has a radius=2 in, and L=6 in, what is the torsional stiffness of the rod, Krod? B) from 1 C) above, if the radius of the aluminum wheel is 4 inches, and the wheel thickness is t=0.5 in, what is Jp? C) Using these values, determine the undamped natural frequency of the system.
