EXAMPLE PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS A-5-1. In the system of Figure 5-52, x ( t ) is the input displacement and B(t) is the output angular displacement. Assume that the masses involved are negligibly small and that all motions are restricted to be small; therefore, the system can be considered linear. The initial conditions for x and 0 are zeros, or x ( 0 - ) = 0 and H(0-) = 0. Show that this system is a differentiating element. Then obtain the response B(t) when x ( t ) is a unit-step input. Solution. The equation for the system is b(X - L8) = kLB or The Laplace transform of this last equation, using zero initial conditions, gives And so Thus the system is a differentiating system. For the unit-step input X ( s ) = l / s , the output O(s)becomes The inverse Laplace transform of O(s)gives Figure 5-52 Mechanical system. Chapter 5 / Transient and Steady-State Response Analyses Figure 5-53 Unit-step input and the response of the mechanical s) stem shown in Figure 5-52. Note that if the value of klb is large the response O ( t ) approaches a pulse signal as shown in Figure 5-53. A-5-2. Consider the mechanical system shown in Figure 5-54. Suppose that the system is at rest initially [ x ( o ) = 0, i ( 0 ) = 01, and at t = 0 it is set into motion by a unit-impulse force. Obtain a mathe- matical model for the system.Then find the motion of the syst
