Explanation Given information: The mass ( m ) of the slender rod AB is 10 kg. The length ( l ) of the slender rod AB is 0.6 m. The spring constant ( k ) is 1.5 kN/m . Assume the acceleration due to gravity ( g ) as 9.81 m/s 2 . Calculation: Show the force and displacement of the system as in Figure (1). Write the expression for mass moment of inertia of the system ( I ): I = 1 12 m l 2 + m ( l 2 ) 2 Write the expression for the kinetic energy ( T ): T = 1 2 I θ ˙ m 2 Substitute 1 12 m l 2 + m ( l 2 ) 2 for I . T = 1 2 ( 1 12 m l 2 + m ( l 2 ) 2 ) θ ˙ 2 Write the expression for the displacement ( h ): h = ( l 2 − l 2 cos θ ) = l 2 ( 1 − cos θ ) ( ∵ ( 1 − cos θ = 2 sin 2 θ 2 ) ) = l 2 2 sin 2 θ 2 For small oscillation 2 sin 2 θ 2 ≈ θ 2 2 . h = l 2 θ 2 2 = l 4 θ 2 Write the expression for the displacement ( x m ) : x m = l θ Write the expression for the potential energy ( V ): V = 1 2 k ( x m ) 2 + m g h Substitute l 4 θ 2 for h and l θ for x m . V = 1 2 k ( l θ ) 2 + m g ( l 4 θ 2 ) = ( 1 2 k ( l ) 2 + m g ( l 4 ) ) θ 2 Write the expression for the total energy of the system: T + V = constant Substitute 1 2 ( 1 12 m l 2 + m ( l 2 ) 2 ) θ ˙ 2 for T and ( 1 2 k ( l ) 2 + m g ( l 4 ) ) θ 2 for V

Free undamped vibrations

Whenever an object/system displaces in either side of its equilibrium position with the help of an external/internal means, then the object/system moves regularly or randomly on both sides of its equilibrium position. This motion is called vibration. Gen…

A machine of mass 75 kg is mounted on springs and is fitted with a dashpot to damp out vibrations. There are three springs each of stiffness 10 N/mm and it is found that the amplitude of vibration diminishes from 38.4 mm to 6.4 mm in two complete oscillations. Assuming that the damping force varies as the velocity, determine : 1. the resistance of the dash-pot at unit velocity ; 2. the ratio of the frequency of the damped vibration to the frequency of the undamped vibration ; and 3. the periodic time of the damped vibration.

A 6-kg uniform cylinder can roll without sliding on a horizontal surface and is attached by a pin at point C to the 4-kg horizontal bar AB. The bar is attached to two springs, each having a constant of k = 4.2 kN/m, as shown. The bar is moved 12 mm to the right of the equilibrium position and released. Determine the period of vibration of the system. (Round the final answer to three decimal places.) The period of vibration of the system is ___s.

A 2-kg block is supported by a spring with a constant of k= 128 N/m and a dashpot with a coefficient of viscous damping of c=0.6 N.s/m. The block is in equilibrium when it is struck from below by a hammer that imparts to the block an upward velocity of 0.4 m/s. Determine (a) the logarithmic decrement,(b) the maximum upward displacement of the block from equilibrium after two cycles.
