2 (a) The viscously damped system in Figure Q2(a) has a mass of 4 kg, stiffness ki = K2 = k3 = 1000 N/m and a damping ratio of 0.25. If the mass is stretched 40 mm to the right of the static equilibrium position and released from rest, determine: () The natural frequency in Hz. (11) The equation that describes the damped oscillatory motion. (III) The position of the mass in mm at t = 0.1s. (b) Figure Q2(b) shows a shock absorber for a motorcycle of mass m=150 kg. When the shock absorber is subjected to an initial vertical velocity due to a road bump, the resulting displacement amplitude vs time graph is shown in Figure Q2(c). The successive amplitudes are related as follows: (6) (2) X1.5 = X1/3; X2 = X1.5/3; X2.5 = X2/3 For the underdamped shock absorber, determine: The damping ratio. (II) The spring stiffness if the damped period is 2s. (5) (5) Static equilibrium position m Figure Q2(a) k/2 C (1) k/2 JA Figure Q2(b) Figure Q2(c)
