Question: Q 5 . A small 4 0 - k g block A is attached to the rod B C of negligible mass which is supported

Q5. A small 40-kg block A is attached to the rod BC of negligible mass which is supported at B by a pin and bracket and at C by a spring of constant k=4kNm. The system can move in a vertical plane and is in equilibrium when the rod is horizontal. The rod is acted upon at C by a periodic force of magnitude P=Pmsinft, where Pm=10N and f=16rads.
a) What are the period values (in seconds) of the given system when when b=200mm,400mm and 600 mm respectively for free vibration (i.e. in the absence of P )?
b) In the presence of P(i.e. forced vibration) and b=400mm, obtain the differential equation of motion.
c) Solve the differential equation of motion in part b.
d) Plot yc(i.e. vertical deflection at C ) versus time graph by using the results of part C and find the maximum vertical tip deflection.
