Explanation Given information: Mass of each block m = 1.5 Κ g Spring constant k = 720 Ν / m Initial velocity v = 250 m m / s Concept used: By using the principle of conservation of energy for the free vibration of un-damped system, the energy is partly kinetic and partly potential, keeping the total energy being constant. Thus, T + V = Constant Kinetic energy of the system T = 1 2 m ( b 2 + c 2 ) θ ˙ 2 And,Potential energy of the system V = 1 2 k c 2 θ 2 Calculation: Total energy = kinetic energy + Potential energy 1 2 m ( b 2 + c 2 ) θ ˙ 2 + 1 2 k c 2 θ 2 = 0 Now, differentiating the above equation with respect to time (t) to find the natural frequency. Thus, d d t [ 1 2 m ( b 2 + c 2 ) θ ˙ 2 + 1 2 k c 2 θ 2 ] = 0 d d t [ 1 2 m ( b 2 + c 2 ) θ ˙ 2 ] + d d t [ 1 2 k c 2 θ 2 ] = 0 1 2 m ( b 2 + c 2 ) [ 2 θ ¨ . θ ˙ ] + 1 2 k c 2 2 θ ˙ . θ = 0 m ( b 2 + c 2 ) θ ¨

Forced undamped vibrations

In mechanical engineering, vibration is expressed as the term that occurs due to an object's backward and forward movement about a point of equilibrium. Generally, there are three types of vibrations which are,

Two blocks each have a mass 1.5 kg and are attached to links that are pin-connected to bar BC as shown. The masses of the links and bar are negligible, and the blocks can slide without friction. Block D is attached to a spring of constant = 720 N/m. Knowing that bloc k = 720 N/m. Knowing that block A is at rest when it is struck horizontally with a mallet and given an initial velocity of 250 mm/s, determine the magnitude of the maximum displacement of block D during the resulting motion.

A 30-lb slender rod AB is 5 ft long and is pivoted about a point O which is 1 ft from end B. The other end is pressed against (NOT connected with) a spring of constant k = 150 lb/ft until the spring is compressed 1 ft. The rod is then in a horizontal position. The mechanism is designed such that no interference occurs during all motions. If the rod is released from rest at this position, when it rotates 45°, determine: a) The angular velocity of rod AB. b) The angular acceleration of rod AB, as well as the magnitude of the reaction force at O. 5 ft 1 ft B

A 3-lb block is supported as shown by a spring of constant k= 2 lb/in. that can act in tension or compression. The block is in its equilibrium position when it is struck from below by a hammer that imparts to the block an upward velocity of 90 in./s. Determine (a) the time required for the block to move 3 in. upward, (b) the corresponding velocity and acceleration of the block.
