3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is free vibration?
Think about what happens when a system is not affected by external forces.
Can a Single Degree of Freedom system have more than one mass?
Focus on the definition of SDOF.
What affects the natural frequency of an SDOF system?
Look for relationships between mass and stiffness.
True or False: Free vibration requires external forces to occur.
Think about the conditions required for free vibration.
A mass of 5 kg is attached to a spring with a stiffness of 200 N/m. Calculate the natural frequency and describe its implications for free vibration.
Use the natural frequency formula carefully.
Consider a mass-spring system that oscillates with a natural frequency of 4 rad/s. If the mass is doubled, what will be the new natural frequency?
Analyze the effect of mass on natural frequency.
