Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A mass of 5kg is attached to a spring of stiffness 200 N/m and a damper of 50 Ns/m. Determine the system's natural frequency and damping ratio.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use the formulas for natural frequency and damping ratio based on spring and mass characteristics.

Question 2

Given a step input of 10 N for the Mass-Spring-Damper system discussed, determine the response of the system using the transfer function.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how step responses relate to transfer functions.
