Question:

The seismic instrument shown is secured to a ship’s deck near the stern where propeller-induced vibration is most pronounced. The ship has a single three-bladed propeller which turns at 180 rev/min and operates partly out of water, thus causing a shock as each blade breaks the surface. The damping ratio of the instrument is ζ = 0.5, and its undamped natural frequency is 3 Hz. If the measured amplitude of A relative to its frame is 0.75 mm, compute the amplitude 0 of the vertical vibration of the deck.
