Problem 1.7: A metronome, also called a rhythm timer or a music timer, is modeled as com- prising a massless hand rigid link) pivoted at its root and a mass m near its tip. The hand is restrained by a torsional spring of spring constant k.. The mass is located at a distance h from the pivot point, as shown in Fig. P1.7. When the hand is in its vertically upright position, the torsional spring is undeformed. Derive the equation(s) of motion for the system Figure P1.7 Metronome with mass attached to its hand
