Question:

Rod AB is attached to a hinge at A and to two springs, each of constant 1.35 k = kN/m.

(a) Determine the mass m of the block C for which the period of small oscillations is 4 s.

(b) If end B is depressed 60 mm and released, determine the maximum velocity of block C. Neglect the mass of the rod and assume that each spring can act in either tension or compression.
