A spring-mass-damper instrument is employed for acceleration measurements. The spring constant is 12000 N/m. The mass is 5 g. Th

Answer:

a) 246.56 Hz

b) 203.313 Hz

c) Add more springs

Explanation:

Spring constant = 12000 N/m

mass = 5g = 5 * 10^-3 kg

damping ratio = 0.4

<u>a) Calculate Natural frequency </u>

Wn = √k/m = $\sqrt{12000 / 5*10^{-3} }$

= 1549.19 rad/s ≈ 246.56 Hz

<u>b) Bandwidth of instrument </u>

W / Wn = $\sqrt{1-2(0.4)^2}$

W / Wn = 0.8246

therefore Bandwidth ( W ) = Wn * 0.8246 = 246.56 * 0.8246 = 203.313 Hz

C ) To increase the bandwidth we have to add more springs
