Hi this is the correct file by the way the file on my first post is incorrect

Homework Statement Hi I have attemted to work out the undamped natural frequency and the damping ratio can someone please confirm if this is correct? and for question d I have worked out r and TR can someone please confirm if this is correct? if all is correct I need help with plotting a graph...

Hi I was wondering someone can show me how to calculate the maximum deflection using macauley methods, I have answered all the other questions really stuck now, Can you please show the working outs aswell. The document is on office 2010 format.

Could you please go into abit more detail please?

The beam in the PDF file is a beam that was setup and we did a practical experiment on it, we hung weights at 3 points which was wb, wc and we there was a strain gauge and a meter to read the deflection. Once the weights were on we took readings of the strain and deflection the diagram shows...

Hi folks I was wondering if someone can start me off on this question, I have have a line diagram of a beam and I have to use it to use in a real life example. I don't know what to use and compare it to would be grateful for some of you guys input.Give an real example/picture of a load-carrying...

So how do I go about finding k? I think you use the letter "K" where we use the letter "a" (x-a). So how do i go about finding this?

1. Use the factor theorem to factorise completely f(x)= x³+x²-4x-4. Hence solve the equation x³+x²-4x-4=0 f(x) = x³ + x² - 4x - 4 f(x) = (x³ + x²) - (4x + 4) f(x) = x²(x + 1) - 4(x + 1) f(x) = (x + 1)(x² - 4) f(x) = (x + 1)(x² - 2²) f(x) = (x + 1)(x + 2)(x - 2) x³ + x² -...
