,1.4 The amplitude of vibration of an undamped system is measured to be 1 mm. The phase shift
from t = 0 is measured to be 2 rad and the frequency is found to be 5 rad/s. Calculate the initial
conditions that caused this vibration to occur. Assume the response is of the form x(t ) A sin( nt
).
Solution:
Given: A 1mm, 2 rad, 5 rad/s . For an undamped system:
x t A sin n t 1sin 5t 2 and
v t x t A n cos nt 5 cos 5t 2
Setting t = 0 in these expressions yields:
x(0) = 1sin(2) = 0.9093 mm
v(0) = 5 cos(2) = - 2.081 mm/s

In the figures, N is the normal force and the components of gravity are determined by the angle
as indicated. From the static equilibrium: kx s mg sin 0 . Summing forces in (b) yields:

1.9 Using the solution of equation (1.2) in the form x(t) Bsin nt Ccos n t
calculate the values of B and C in terms of the initial conditions x0 and v0.
Solution:
Using the solution of equation (1.2) in the form

Now substitute the initial conditions into these expressions for the position and velocity to get:
x0 x(0) Bsin(0) C cos(0) C
v0 ẋ(0) n B cos(0) nC sin(0)
