A copper bare wire, stranded, size 4/0 AWG is being tested in a laboratory (free air test), where the ambient temperature is 30 C (86 F). It is assumed that the damage temperature for this wire is 200 C. According to the results of previous tests, a factor h = 28 W/(㎡ K) can be used for a simplified first-order approximation. Using the simplified model described in class: a. Determine what would be the cable's ampere rating (IN) for a rated temperature of 65 C and the given ambient temperature
b. Determine the cable's minimum damage current (Id)
c. Determine the rt=Ky of the wire (approximated damage curve)
d. Plot the approximated damage curve in a log-log scale
e. Plot the "exact" (Approximation 1) damage curve in the same graph and compare. For which current value the two curves are practically equal?
f. Determine and plot the second approximation for the damage curve (T-Ind27t=K',d). Compare the plots of all the three damage curves

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.
