Assignments ME 3456 Experiment #3 1.3 Dr. G. Adams & Dr. J. Pabon /Northeastern Univ. a. Pre-Lab Assignment 1. What is the torsional spring constant of a shaft with diameter d=3.15 mm, Length 1=30 cm, and shear modulus G=79 GPa? 2. What is the natural circular frequency of a system with torsional spring constant k and mass moment of inertia Jo? 3. What is the critical damping constant of a torsional vibration system with mass moment of inertia Jo and natural frequency wn? (Remember torsional systems are analogous to translational systems).
