hag e WA = (60.8) (O08) =e HAM! m/e3) A machine of mass m~500 kg is mounted on a simply supported stcel
beam of length / = 2m having a rectangular cross-section (depth — 0.1m,
width = 1.2 m) and Young's modulus £=2.06 e'' N/m’. To reduce the
vertical deflection of the beam, a spring of stiffness & is attached at the
mid-span, as shown below in Figure 1. Determine the value of k needed
to reduce the deflection of the beam to one-third of its original value.
Assume that the mass of the beam is negligible.

Figure 2. Let its displacement x(¢) be measured from:
a) the position for which both springs are unstretched. What is the
natural frequency of the system?
6) the static equilibrium position of the system.
