An electric motor is bolted to a metal table. When the motor is on. it causes the tabletop to vibrate horizontally. Assume that the legs of the table behave like linear springs, and neglect damping. The total weight of the motor and the tabletop is 150 lb. When the motor is not turned on, the frequency of horizontal vibration of the tabletop and motor is 5 Hz. When the motor is running at 600 rpm. the amplitude of the horizontal vibration is 0.01 in. What is the magnitude of the oscillatory force exerted on the table by the motor at its 600-rpm running speed?
