An electric motor, of mass 20 kg and operating speed 1350 rpm, is placed on a fixed-fixed steel beam of width 15 cm and depth 12 cm, as shown in Fig. 9.52. The motor has a rotating unbalance of 0.1 kg-m. The amplitude of vibration of the beam under steady-state operation
of the motor is suppressed by attaching an undamped vibration absorber underneath the motor, as shown in Fig. 9.52. Determine the mass and stiffness of the absorber such that the amplitude of the absorber mass is less than 2 cm.
