1. A spring mass system has spring stiffness of “k” N/m and a
mass of “M” kg. It has the natural frequency of vibration as 12
Hz. An extra 2 kg mass is coupled to M and the natural
frequency reduces by 2 Hz. Find the values of” k and “M”.
1.A mass of 10 kg is suspended from one end of a helical spring,
the other end being fixed. The stiffness of the spring is 10
N/mm. The viscous damping causes the amplitude to decrease to
one tenth of the initial value in four complete oscillations. If a
periodic force of 150 cos 50 t N is applied at the mass in the
vertical direction, find the amplitude of the forced vibrations.
