Step 1

Determine the number of degrees of freedom: Since the system can only move in one direction (up and down), there is only one degree of freedom. b. Using the energy method, find the equivalent mass and stiffness with respect to the displacement of mass m: Show more…

Solve the following vibration problem. (a) It is SDOF since the system can only move in one direction (up and down). Not sure how else to work this problem. Consider the system shown in the figure. a. Determine the number of degrees of freedom. b. Using the energy method, find the equivalent mass and stiffness with respect to the displacement of mass m. Also, derive the differential equation of motion. c. Using a free-body diagram and Newton's law of motion, derive the differential equation of motion.
