The swinging frame of a balancing machine is shown in figure 1. The lever ACB has a mass of 6 kg and a radius of gyration of 75 mm about its centre of gravity which is at pivot C. The lever FD is of uniform section and has a mass of 1 kg. It carries a mass of 0,75 kg at E. The mass of the connecting link at BD may be ignored. The stiffness of the compression springs at A and B is 5,6 kg/m. Determine the frequency of vibration of the system.
