PROBLEM 19.145
A 45-kg motor is bolted to a light horizontal beam which has a static
deflection of 6 mm due to the weight of the motor. The unbalance of the
motor is equivalent to a mass of 110 g located 75 mm from the axis of
rotation. Knowing that the amplitude of the vibration of the motor is
0.25 mm at a speed of 300 rpm, determine (a) the damping factor /,
c
cc
(b) the coefficient of damping c.
