(2x8 = 16) Section -B Q2: A body is subjected to two harmonic motion given as x1 = 15 sin (wt+/6) and x2 = 8cos (wt+/3). What harmonic motion should be given to the body to bring it to equilibrium? Q3: A vibratory system in a vehicle is to be designed with the following parameters: K= 100 N/m, C= 2N.Sec/m, m=1kg. Calculate the decrease of amplitude from its starting value after 3 complete oscillation and (b) the frequency of oscillation. Section -C Q6: Determine the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the system as shown in Fig-2 Q7: Write the short notes on following: (a)Accelerometer (b)Vibrometer Q8: Derive the frequency equation of longitudinal vibration for a free beam with zero initial displacement. (8x2=16) Times: 2 Hour Q4: Determine the natural frequency of the mass m = 15kg as shown in Fig-1, assuming the the cords do not stretch and slide over the pulley rim. Assume that the pulley has no mass. Given K1= 8 x 103N/m, K2= 6 x 103N/m Q5: A vibrometer indicates 2 percent error in measurement and its natural frequency is 5 Hz. If the lowest frequency that can be measured is 40 Hz, find the value of damping factor. (4x4 =16)
