A single degree of freedom vibrating system has mass of 5 kg, stiffness of 500 N/m and damping coefficient of 100 N-s/m. To make the system critically damped
- A. only the mass is to be increased by 1.2 times.
- B. only the stiffness is to be reduced to half.
- C. only the damping coefficient is to be doubled.
- D. no change in any of the system parameters is required.
Answer: D. no change in any of the system parameters is required.
