TAKE 

T = 4 

U = 50 

A box that contains of a 250 kg fragile instrument is transported by a truck that is subjected
to a vertical harmonic motion given by y(t) = 0.02 sin 3t. Assume that the instrument only
moves in vertical translation and is supported by four springs with stiffness, k = 250 × T N/m
as simplified in Figure Q3.
Q3
Note: The values of T and U depend on the respective 5th and 6th digits of your matric number
as shown in Table Q3. For example, if your matric number is AD170154 gives the value of
T = 3 and U = 50.
(а)
Determine the maximum displacement, velocity and acceleration experienced by the
instrument.
(b)
Evaluate the percentage of vibration transmitted from the truck bed to the instrument
and justify the outcome.
(c)
Analyze the best possible solution to allow only U% of vibration transmitted to the
instrument. Please support your answer with calculation and draw a mass spring
system for this solution.
