1. A study of the response of a human body subjected to vibration/shock is important in many applications. In a standing posture, the masses of head, upper torso, hips, and legs and the elasticity/damping of neck, spinal column, abdomen, and legs influence the response characteristics. Develop a sequence of three improved approximations for modeling the human body.

A shaft having length equal to 10 m and diameter equal to (57) mm is simply supported at both ends. The shaft carries four masses (157) kg, (207) kg, (257) kg and (307) kg. These masses are located at a distance of 1.5 m, 2.5 m, 5.5 m and 7.5 m from the left hand side support, respectively. The modulus of elasticity, E, for the material of the shaft is 200 GN/m2 and mass density for the shaft material is 7500 kg/m3. Determine critical speed of the shaft in revolutions per minute for the following two cases: Effect of the mass of the shaft is neglected. Effect of the mass of the shaft is considered.

QUESTION 21: A 50m tape of standard length has weight of 0.05kg/m, with a cross sectional area of 0.04sqcm. It has a modulus of elasticity, E = 2x106 kg/cm² The tape is of standard length under a pull of 5.5kg when supported throughout its length and a temperature of 20°C. This tape was used to measure a distance between A and B and was recorded to be 458.65m long. At the time of measurement, the pull applied was 8kg with the tape supported only at its endpoints and the temperature observed was 18°C. Assuming coefficient of expansion of steel tape as 0.0000116/°C. a) Compute the correction due to the applied pull. b) Compute the correction due to sag of the tape. c) Compute the true length of the measured line AB due to the combined effects of applied pull, sag and temperature.
