A machine is supported on four steel springs. By neglecting damping, the natural frequency of vertical vibration the machine-spring system runs at f=200 cycles per minute. The machine generates a vertical force p(t)=posinot. When the machine runs at f₁ =30 cycle per minute the amplitude of vertical vibration is measured as u₁=0.2cm, at f₂=170 cycle per minute is u₂=1.042cm, and at f3=400 cycle per minute is u3=0.0248cm. Calculate the amplitude of vertical motion of the machine if the steel springs are replaced by four rubber isolators which provide the same stiffness, but introduce damping equivalent to -0.25 for the system. Evaluate the response of the system for frequency ratios r, respectively.

Question
A machine is supported on four steel springs. By neglecting damping, the natural frequency of vertical vibration the machine-spring system
runs at f=200 cycles per minute. The machine generates a vertical force p(t)=posinot. When the machine runs at f₁ =30 cycle per minute the
amplitude of vertical vibration is measured as u₁=0.2cm, at f₂=170 cycle per minute is u₂=1.042cm, and at f3-400 cycle per minute is
u3=0.0248cm. Calculate the amplitude of vertical motion of the machine if the steel springs are replaced by four rubber isolators which provide
the same stiffness, but introduce damping equivalent to -0.25 for the system. Evaluate the response of the system for frequency ratios r,
respectively.
