Physics · Mechanical Vibrations
In vibration isolation for a single-degree-of-freedom system with damping, which of the following statements is correct?
- 1Adding damping reduces the transmitted force at resonance but may increase it at higher frequencies.✓
- 2Adding damping only changes the stiffness of the system without affecting the force transmitted at all.
- 3Adding damping increases system stiffness and reduces natural frequency significantly.
- 4Adding damping increases isolation at every frequency and never causes any rise in transmitted force.
Correct answer
Adding damping reduces the transmitted force at resonance but may increase it at higher frequencies.
