Aplant has two identical standby generator units for emergency use. in the area of the generators, the normal noise level registers 81 dba on the sound-level meter with the generators turned off. when one generator switches on, the slm needle jumps to 83.6 dba. (a) perform calculations to determine what the dba reading will be when the second generator also turns on (so that both generators are on). (b) if both generators are on for a full 8-hour shift, will osha's pel be exceeded? will the al be exceeded? explain. (c) if one generator is on for half the shift and both are on for the other half, will the pel be exceeded? will the al be exceeded? explain. (d) in the absence of any plant background noise, what would be the sound level contributed by a single generator? by both generators? show calculations to explain.

An engine, weighing 3000 n, is supported on a pedestal mount. it has been observed that the engine induces vibration into the surrounding area through its pedestal at the maximum operating speed. determine the stiffness of the dynamic vibration absorber spring in (n/m) that will reduce the vibration when mounted on the pedestal. the magnitude of the exciting force is 250 n, and the amplitude of motion of the auxiliary mass is to be limited to 2 mm note: in this question type-in right numbers, no decimals, no fractions, no unit. approximate to right number if needed
