Chapter 4, Problem 4.43P
The vibration of a motor mounted on the end of a cantilever beam can be modeled as a mass-spring system. The motor weighs 30 lb, and the beam weighs 7 lb. When the motor is placed on the beam, it causes an additional static deflection of 0.8 in. Find the equivalent mass m and equivalent spring constant k.

A beam of constant cross-section, made of a uniform material, is supported by two springs at the A and B ends. Both springs are given as constant k. The vertical oscillation period is 0.83 seconds if no object is placed on the beam. When an object with a mass of 50 kg is placed in the center of the beam, the vertical oscillation period increases to 1.52 seconds. Calculate the stiffness wich is k of both springs, and the mass of the beam.
Figure below shows a rod with mass M = 100 kg, cross section area A = 10 cm². The rod is supported by 4 springs having stiffnesses of
k = 1 MN/m. A tip mass with m = 120 kg is attached to the rod. Assume x is the degree of freedom of the equivalent system. The Young's
modulus, E, is not known. If the natural frequency of the equivalent mass-spring system is 40 Hz, determine the Young's modulus, E.
Assume the length of the rod is L = 5 m. Find the nearest answer.
