Exercise of mechanical vibration Nov. 1st and 8th Q2: A stick with a mass m is supported by a frictionless pin, around which the stick rotates. An end of the stick is connected Q1: Consider a balancer depicted below. Answer its equation of to the wall by a spring. When 0, its motion and natural angular frequency. The mass of the stick can k be ignored and a small angle assumption is available: sin ≅ . length is natural. Gravity force acts on the mass. Answer the equation of motion of the system about θ and the period of free vibration.
