During torsional vibration of a shaft, the node is characterized by the
maximum angular velocity
maximum angular displacement
maximum angular acceleration
zero angular displacement
In a multi-rotor system of torsional vibration maximum number of nodes that can occur is
two
equal to the number of rotor plus one
equal to the number of rotors
equal to the number of rotors minus one
Rotating shafts tend of vibrate violently at whirling speeds because
the shafts are rotating at very high speeds
Bearing centre line coincides with the shaft axis
The system is unbalanced
Resonance is caused due to the heavy weight of the rotor
A shaft has two heavy rotors mounted on it. The transverse natural frequencies, considering each of the rotors separately, are 100 cycles/sec and 200 cycles/sec respectively. The lowest critical speed is
5367 rpm
6000 rpm
9360 rpm
12000rpm
An automotive engine weighing 240 kg is supported on four springs with linear characteristics. Each of the front two springs have a stiffness of 16 MN/m while the stiffness of each rear spring is 32 MN/m. The engine speed (in rpm), at which resonance is likely to occur, is
6040
3020
1424

A shaft of 50 mm diameter and 1 m length carries a disc which has mass eccentricity equal to 190 microns. The displacement of the shaft at a speed which is 90% of critical speed in microns is
810
900
800
820
The rotor of a turbine is generally rotated at
the critical speed
a speed much below the critical speed
a speed much above the critical speed
a speed having no relation to critical speed
The critical speed of a rotating shaft depends upon
Mass
stiffness
mass and stiffness
mass, stiffness and eccentricity
A slender shaft supported on two bearings at its ends carries a disc with an eccentricity e from the axis of rotation. The critical speed of the shaft is N. If the disc is replaced by a second one of same weight but mounted with an eccentricity 2e, critical speed of the shaft in the second case is
2N
