Question 33

MEMCQ2 marksNeeds review
A machine of mass 100 kg is subjected to an external harmonic force with a frequency of 40 rad/s. The designer decides to mount the machine on an isolator to reduce the force transmitted to the foundation. The isolator can be considered as a combination of stiffness (

) and damper (damping factor,

) in parallel. The designer has the following four isolators:

kN/m,


kN/m,


kN/m,


kN/m,

Arrange the isolators in the ascending order of the force transmitted to the foundation.
