8 F.4 (29 pts.) Dynamic response for an air-conditioner on a building An air conditioner is bolted to the roof of a one story building. The air conditioner's motor is unbalanced and its eccentricity is modeled as a particle of mass m attached to the distal end of a rigid rod of length r. When the motor spins with angular speed Ω, it causes the building's roof of mass M to vibrate. The stiffness and material damping in each column that supports the roof is modeled as a linear horizontal spring (k) and linear horizontal damper (b). Homework 4.5 showed that the ODE governing the horizontal displacement x of the building's roof is (M +m)ẍ + 2 b _x + 2 kx = mrω 2 sin(ωt) (a) (3 pts.)

Fill in each element in the table by writing (decreases), 0 (no effect), + (increases), or? (if it may decrease or increase). For the 2 nd -to-last column, assume the air conditioner's normal operating speed is Ω = 28 rad rad, and for last column, assume Ω = 32. sec sec Ω ß 28 rad sec Ω jx!n ss (t)j Balancing the motor (r! 0) 0 0 Increasing the motor speed Ω Decreasing the motor speed Ω Adding mass to the roof (increasing M) Removing mass from the roof Stiffening the support columns (increasing k) Adding damping to the columns (increasing b) Ω ß 32 rad sec jx ss (t)j (e) (3 pts.)
