Simple Mass System Question 1:

A spring-mass system consists of a mass of 5 kg and two springs of stiffness 8 N/mm and 12 N/mm. The system is arranged in different manners, that is:

(i) the mass is suspended at the bottom of two springs in series, and

(ii) the mass is fixed between two springs.

The ratio of natural frequencies of the case (ii) to those of case (i) is approximately ___________. 

  1. 0.5
  2. 1.0
  3. 2.0
  4. 1.5

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 2.0

Simple Mass System Question 1 Detailed Solution

Concept:-

Springs in series - 

Consider two springs with force constants k1 and k2 connected in series supporting a load,

F = mg. 

F3 Vinanti Engineering 22.02.23 D7

The equivalent stiffness of the system can be written as,

⇒ 1ks=1k1+1k2

Springs in Parallel -

Consider two springs with force constants k1 and k2 connected in parallel, supporting a load F = mg. 

F3 Vinanti Engineering 22.02.23 D8

The equivalent stiffness of the system can be written as,

⇒ kp = k1 + k2 

Natural frequency for an undamped spring-mass system can be written as,

⇒ ωn=km

Calculation:-

Given:-

m = 5 kg, k1 = 8 N/mm, k2 = 12 N/mm

Case(1) - The mass is suspended at the bottom of two springs in series -

F3 Vinanti Engineering 22.02.23 D7

Equivalent stiffness is, 1ks=1k1+1k2

So, 1ks=18+112

ks = 4.8 N/mm = 4800 N/m

Then natural frequency is, ωn=ksm 

ωn1=4.8×1035=30.983rad/s

Case(2) - The mass is fixed between two springs.

F3 Vinanti Engineering 22.02.23 D8

Equivalent stiffness is, kp = k1 + k2

So, kp = 8 + 12 = 20 N/mm = 20 × 103 N/m

Then natural frequency is, ωn=kpm

⇒ ωn2=200005=63.245rad/s

The ratio of natural frequencies of case (ii) to those of case (i) is,

⇒ ωn2ωn1=63.24530.983=2.04≈ 2

Simple Mass System Question 2:

The simple oscillator under idealized conditions of no-damping, once excited will oscillate indefinitely with constant amplitude at its natural frequency will be

  1. 12πmk
  2. 1πkm
  3. 12πkm
  4. 1πmk

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 12πkm

Simple Mass System Question 2 Detailed Solution

Concept:

Natural frequency (Eigen frequency): It is the frequency at which a system tends to oscillate indefinitely in the absence of any driving or damping force.

Natural Angular Frequency (or Natural Circular Frequency)is given by, ω=kmand, 

Natural Linear Frequency (or Natural cycle based Frequency), f=ω2π=12πkm

Where k is the stiffness of the system and m is the mass of the system.

Note:

Natural circular frequency is expressed in radian/sec unit whereas Natural linear frequency is expressed in cycles/sec or Hz unit.

  1. 5 rad/s
  2. 25 rad/s
  3. 0.2 rad/s
  4. 0.04 rad/s

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : 5 rad/s

Simple Mass System Question 3 Detailed Solution

Concept: Consider a spring-mass system

GATE ME Vibration Chapter -1 Ques-11 Q-1

Natural frequency for a spring mass system is

ωn=km

Calculation:

Given that, k = 2 N/cm = 200 N/m, m = 8 kg

ωn=km=2008=5rad/s

Simple Mass System Question 4:

The system shown in the figure consists of block A of mass 5 kg connected to a spring through a massless rope passing over pulley B of radius r and mass 20 kg. The spring constant k is 1500 N/m.

F1 S.S Madhu 20.11.19 D 3

Answer (Detailed Solution Below) 9.9 - 10.1

Simple Mass System Question 4 Detailed Solution

Concept:

By Newton’s law

Iθ̈ + mx2θ̈ + kx2θ = 0

where; I = moment of inertia of pulley, m = mass of box = 5 kg, M = mass of pulley = 20 kg, k = stiffness of spring, r = radius of pulley

Mr2/2 θ̈ + mr2θ̈ + kr2θ  =  0

(10 × r2) θ̈   + (5 × r2) θ̈ + (1500 × r2)θ = 0  

(15 × r2)θ̈  + (1500 × r2) θ = 0

Comparing the above Equation with

θ̈  + ωn2θ = 0

ωn2=1500r215r2

ωn=100

ωn = 10 rad/s

Simple Mass System Question 5:

The figure shows a single degree of freedom system. The system consists of a massless rigid bar OP hinged at O and a mass m at end P. The natural frequency of vibration of the system is

F1 S.S Madhu 11.01.20 D14

  1. fn=12πk4m
  2. fn=12πkm
  3. fn=12πk2m
  4. fn=12π2km

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : fn=12πk4m

Simple Mass System Question 5 Detailed Solution

Using Newton's method and taking moment about point O.

m(2a)2ẍ  + k(a)2x = 0

m4a2ẍ + ka2x = 0

x¨+ka24ma2x=0

x¨+k4mx=0

Comparing the above equation with ẍ + ωn2x = 0 

∴ ωn=k4m

Simple Mass System Question 6:

A simple spring mass vibrating system has a natural frequency of fn. If the spring stiffness is halved and mass is double, then the natural frequency will become

  1. fn/2
  2. 2fn
  3. 4fn
  4. 8fn

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : fn/2

Simple Mass System Question 6 Detailed Solution

Explanation:

GATE ME Vibration Chapter -1 Ques-11 Q-1

The natural frequency of a spring-mass system is given by,

fn=ωn2π   and  ωn=km

where k = spring stiffness and m = mass 

If spring stiffness is halved and mass is doubled

then the natural frequency is given by

ωn=0.5k2m

ωn=k4m

ωn=12km

ωn=wn2

fn=fn2

Hence, the natural frequency will become half.

Simple Mass System Question 7:

  1. 3.21
  2. 4.21
  3. 6.21
  4. 7.21

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 4 : 7.21

Simple Mass System Question 7 Detailed Solution

Concept:

Logarithmic decrement (δ)=2πξ1ξ2

Calculation:

ξ = 0.3

δ=2π×0.310.32

δ = 1.976

The ratio of 2 successive amplitude is always constant and given as,

XnXn+1=eδ=e1.976

XnXn+1=7.21

Simple Mass System Question 8:

Assignment 6 Jigiasu GATE 2019 Set 2 10 Qs D3

  1. 2
  2. 4
  3. 2√7
  4. 4√7

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 4 : 4√7

Simple Mass System Question 8 Detailed Solution

F3 S.S Madhu 28.11.19 D 6

For small angular rotation θ of the rod, compression in the spring (3k) is

δ1=(L4)θF1=F3k=k1δ1=3kL4θ=34kLθ

Expansion of damper:

δ2=(L4)θ

δ˙2=L4θ˙

F2=Fc=Cδ˙2=CL4θ˙

Expansion of spring with stiffness k is

δ3=(L2+L4)θ=3L4θ

F3=Fk=3L4θk

Now taking moment of all forces about O and inertia forces to be zero, we get

Iθ ¨+34kLθ(L4)+CL4θ˙L4+3L4θk(3L4)=0

I=Iaboutcentre+m(L4)2=mL212+mL216=7mL248

748mL2θ ¨+316kL2θ+916kL2θ+CL216θ˙=0

73mL2θ ¨+12kL2θ+CL2θ˙=0

Comparing with: meqθ̈ + ceqθ̇ +keqθ = 0

ξ=Ceq2keqmeq=CL2212kL2×73mL2=CL2212kL2×73mL2=12(27)Cmk

Also for critical damping ξ = 1

Cmk×147=1

Cmk=47

Simple Mass System Question 9:

A thin uniform rigid bar of length L and mass M is hinged at point O, located at a distance of L/3 from one of its ends. The bar is further supported using spring, each of stiffness k, located at the two ends. A particle of mass m=M4 is fixed at one end of the bar, as shown in the figure. For small rotations of the bar about O, the natural frequency of the system is

  1. 5kM
  2. 5k2M
  3. 3k2M
  4. 3kM

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : 5k2M

Simple Mass System Question 9 Detailed Solution

Explanation:

Taking mass moment of inertia about 0

I=mL212+M(L2L3)2+m×(2L3)2

=ML212+ML236+4ML29=2ML29

Balancing Torque about 0

Iα=K×2L3×(2L3θ)+K×L3×(L3θ)

2ML29d2θdt2=5k2M=ωn2θ

ωn=5k2M

Simple Mass System Question 10:

Simple Mass System Question 10 Detailed Solution

Concept:

F1 Satya Madhu 14.07.20 D3

Iθ..+k×2l3×2l3×θ+k×l3×l3×θ=0

Iθ..+(4kL29+kl29)θ=0

mass moment of inertia

IO=IC+m(2L3L2)2IC=mL212IO=mL212+mL236I=mL29

ml29θ..+5kl29θ=0

Then, ωn=keqmeq

ωn=5kl29ml29=5km

Alternate Method

By Torque Method,

I=ml212+m(l2l3)2=ml212+ml236=ml29

k1=k(2l3)2=4l2k9,k2=k(l3)2=kl29

k=k1+k2=4l2k9+kl29

k=5kl29

Equ. 1 gives,

(ml29)θ¨+(5kl29)θ=0

θ¨+(5kl29ml29)θ=0

θ¨+(5km)θ=0

ωn=km=5km1=5km
