Two springs and two masses are attached in a straight vertical line as shown in Figure Q3. The system is set in motion by holding the mass m₂ at its equilibrium position and pushing the mass m₁ downwards of its equilibrium position a distance 2 m and then releasing both masses. if m₁ = m₂ = 1 kg, k₁ = 3 N/m and k₂ = 2 N/m. www.m k₁ = 3 (y₁ = 0). m₁ = 1 k2=2 (y₂ = 0) |m₂ = 1 Y2 y 2 System in static equilibrium (Net change in spring length =32-31) System in motion Figure Q3 - Coupled mass-spring system Determine the equations of motion y₁(t) and y₂(t) for the two masses m₁ and m₂ respectively: Analytically (hand calculations)
100 As a spring is heated, its spring constant decreases. Suppose the spring is heated and then cooled so that the spring constant at time t is k(t) = t sin N/m. If the mass-spring system has mass m = 2 kg and a damping constant b = 1 N-sec/m with initial conditions x(0) = 6 m and x'(0) = -5 m/sec and it is subjected to the harmonic external force f(t) = 100 cos 3t N. Find at least the first four nonzero terms in a power series expansion about t = 0, i.e. Maclaurin series expansion, for the displacement: Analytically (hand calculations)
this is answer to a vibrations question. in the last part it states an assumption of x2, im not sure where this assumption comes from. an answer would be greatly appreciated
