1.20 Figure 1.76 shows a uniform rigid bar of mass m that is pivoted at point O and connected by springs of stiffnesses k1 and k2. Considering a small angular displacement u of the rigid bar about the point O, determine the equivalent spring constant associated with the restoring moment. Use equivalent potential energy to solve.

Question

1.20 Figure 1.76 shows a uniform rigid bar of mass m that is pivoted at point O and connected
by springs of stiffnesses k1 and k2. Considering a small angular displacement u of the rigid
bar about the point O, determine the equivalent spring constant associated with the restoring
moment.

Use equivalent potential energy to solve.
