Section 2.6. Damp Free Vibration problems
Objective:
1. Setting up damp free vibration problems
2. Using 2nd order homogeneous differential equations to solve damp free vibration problems
We are ready for the spring vibration problem. Here is the review that we cover in Section 2.1. Suppose a mass
Hence the ODE becomes
In this section, we are assuming
Case 0:
Example 1: A mass of 150 g stretches a spring 10 cm. If the mass is set in motion from its equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 20 cm/s, and if there is no damping, determinate the position
Exercise 1: A mass of 100 g stretches a spring 20 cm. If the mass is set in motion from its equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 10 cm/s, and if there is no damping, determinate the position
Case 1:
Example 2: A spring is stretched 20 cm by a force of 5 N. A mass of 5 kg is hung from the spring and the air resistance exerts a force of 0.1 N when the velocity of the mass is 10 m/s. If the mass is pulled down 10 cm below its equilibrium position given an initial downward velocity 10cm/s, determinate the position
Exercise 2: A spring is stretched 10 cm by a force of 6 N. A mass of 4 kg is hung from the spring and the air resistance exerts a force of 0.2 N when the velocity of the mass is 20 m/s. If the mass is pulled down 5 cm below its equilibrium position given an initial downward velocity 20 cm/s, determinate the position
Case 2:
Case 3:
Example 3: A spring is stretched 10 cm by a force of 2.5 N. A mass of 1 kg is hung from the spring and a damper exerts a force of 1 N when the velocity of the mass is 10 cm/s. If the mass is pulled down 10 cm below its equilibrium position given an initial downward velocity 10 cm/s, determinate the position
Exercise 3: A spring is stretched 50 cm by a force of 4 N. A mass of 2 kg is hung from the spring and a damper exerts a force of 2 N when the velocity of the mass is 20 cm/s. If the mass is pulled down 5 cm below its equilibrium position given an initial downward velocity 20 cm/s, determinate the position
Spring position graphing for four cases:
Case 0: Harmonic,
Case 1: Under-damped,
Case 2: Critical damped,
Case 3: Over damped,
Example 4: Decide of the spring system is harmonic, under-damped, critical damped, or over damped.
