32.
A slender shaft supported on two bearings at its ends carries a disc with an eccentricity e from the axis of rotation. The critical speed of the shaft is Nc. If the disc is replaced by a second one of same mass but mounted with an eccentricily 2 e, then the critical speed of the shaft in the second case is
Nc/2
Nc/2
Nc

Nc proportional to 1/√ reflection y and y proportional to e. So, the answer is A.

Deflection is not asked @Anurag.

Critical speed depends on eccentricity too.

Vinit said:   8 years ago
Agree @Neeraj.

The correct answer is C.

Neeraj said:   9 years ago
C should be right, the critical speed depends upon the following factors:

Type of support (simply supported or cantilever type).

* Length of the shaft.
* Diameter of the shaft.
* Stiffness of the shaft.
* Mass of shaft.
