Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

An engineer designs a system where the mass m = 10 kg, stiffness k = 1000 N/m, and critical damping is applied. Determine the damping coefficient that would achieve critical damping.

💡 Hint: Remember the relationship between mass, stiffness, and damping for critical damping.

Challenge 2 Hard

A system resonates at a natural frequency of 2 Hz. What would be the implications if a forcing frequency of 2 Hz were continuously applied?

💡 Hint: Consider the consequences of matching frequencies in engineering designs.
