Answer:

A carbon brush is a sliding contact used to transmit electrical current from a static to a rotating part in a motor or generator, and machines, ensuring a spark free communication. Carbon brushes are also used in electric motors to provide a path for flow of current.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question we are told

The amplitude of the lateral force is $F = 25 \ N$

The frequency is $f = 1 \ Hz$

The mass of the bridge per unit length is $\mu = 2000 \ kg /m$

The length of the central span is $d = 144 m$

The oscillation amplitude of the section considered at the time considered is $A = 75 \ mm = 0.075 \ m$

The time taken for the undriven oscillation to decay to $\frac{1}{e}$ of its original value is t = 6T

Generally the mass of the section considered is mathematically represented as

$m = \mu * d$

=> $m = 2000 * 144$

=> $m = 288000 \ kg$

Generally the oscillation amplitude of the section after a time period t is mathematically represented as

$A(t) = A_o e^{-\frac{bt}{2m} }$

Here b is the damping constant and the $A_o$ is the amplitude of the section when it was undriven

So from the question

$\frac{A_o}{e} = A_o e^{-\frac{b6T}{2m} }$

=> $\frac{1}{e} =e^{-\frac{b6T}{2m} }$

=> $e^{-1} =e^{-\frac{b6T}{2m} }$

=> $-\frac{3T b}{m} = -1$

=> $b = \frac{m}{3T}$

Generally the amplitude of the section considered is mathematically represented as

$A = \frac{n * F }{ b * 2 \pi }$

=> $A = \frac{n * F }{ \frac{m}{3T} * 2 \pi }$

=> $n = A * \frac{m}{3} * \frac{2\pi}{25}$

=> $n = 0.075 * \frac{288000}{3} * \frac{2* 3.142 }{25}$

=> $n = 1810 \ people$
