Question: A particular load - cell sensor mounted to a machine is characterized by the following parameters: m = 4 l b m k = 8

A particular load-cell sensor mounted to a machine is characterized by the
following parameters:
m=4lbm
k=800lbfin
c=2lbf-secin
If the machine upon which the sensor is mounted is subjected to the following input
excitation F(t) :
where A=100lbbf and =4sec, determine the following:
(a) The frequency and phase angle spectrum plots for F(t)
(b) The undamped natural frequency of the sensor n(rads)
(c) The critical damping of the sensor c(Ibf-secin)
(d) The damping ratio of the sensor
(e) Plot the steady-state output produced by the sensor for input forcing frequencies
of 83rads,278rads and 500rads(You are expected to plot these using EXCEL,
MATLAB, etc. retaining at least n=10 harmonics and offer a short discussion (2-
3 sentences) regarding the results). Hint: program the resulting series solution in
EXCEL using VBA, or inside a MATLAB nested for loop structure.
PLEASE INCLUDE MATLAB CODE WITH GRAPHS
