A 5-kg collar Cis released from rest in the position shown and slides without friction on a vertical rod until it hits a spring with a constant of k= 720 N/m that it compresses. The velocity of the collar is reduced to zero, and the collar reverses the direction of its motion and returns to its initial position. The cycle is then repeated. Determine (a) the period of the motion of the collar, (b) the velocity of the collar 0.4 s after it was released. (Note: This is a periodic motion, but it is not simple harmonic motion.)
The barrel of a field gun weighs 1500 lb and is returned into firing position after recoil by a recuperator of constant c=1100 1b.s/ft Determine (a) the constant k that should be used for the recuperator to return the barrel into firing position in the shortest possible time without any oscillation, (b) the time needed for the barrel to move back two-thirds of the way from its maximum-recoil position to its firing position.
2. A railroad car of mass 2,000 kg traveling at a velocity v = 10 m/s is stopped at the end of the tracks by a spring-
damper system. If the stiffness of the spring is k =180 N/mm and the damping constant is c = 20 N-s/mm,
determine (a) the maximum displacement of the car after engaging the springs and damper and (b) the time taken
to reach the maximum displacement.

There are three springs each of stiffness 10 N/mm and it is found that the amplitude of vibration diminishes from 38.4 mm to 6.4 mm in two complete oscillations. Assuming that the damping force varies as the velocity, determine : 1. the resistance of the dash-pot at unit velocity ; 2. the ratio of the frequency of the damped vibration to the frequency of the undamped vibration ; and 3. the periodic time of the damped vibration.arrow_forwardTwo springs of constants K1 and K2 are connected in series to a block A that vibrates in simple harmonic motion with a period of 5 s.
