PROBLEM 19.140
In Problem 19.139, determine the required value of the coefficient of damping if
the amplitude of the steady-state vibration of the element is to be 0.15 in.
PROBLEM 19.139 A machine element weighing 800 lb is supported by two
springs, each having a constant of 200 lb/in. A periodic force of maximum value
30 lb is applied to the element with a frequency of 2.5 cycles per second.
Knowing that the coefficient of damping is 8 lb s/in., determine the amplitude
of the steady-state vibration of the element.

deflection of 0.075 in. due to the weight of the motor. Knowing that the
unbalance of the rotor is equivalent to a weight of 0.64 oz located 6.25
in. from the axis of rotation, determine the amplitude of the vibration of
the motor at a speed of 900 rpm, assuming (a) that no damping is
present, (b) that the damping factor /c

k = 7.5 kN/m in parallel with a dashpot of constant c. Knowing that the
magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the motor is 9 mm/s2 at a speed
of 100 rpm, determine the damping factor /.
