Question

Between a solid mass of 10 kg and floor, two slab of isolator, natural rubber and felt
are kept in series as shown in Figure Q1(b). The natural rubber slab has a stiffness
of 3000 N/m and an equivalent viscous damping coefficient of 110 Ns/m. The felt
slab has a stiffness of 12,200 N/m and an equivalent viscous damping coefficient of
170 Ns/m.

(i) Sketch the single degree of freedom spring-mass-damper system

(ii) Determine the undamped and damped natural frequencies of the system in
the vertical direction. Neglect the mass of the isolator
