The compressor shown has a mass of 250 kg and operates at 2000 rpm. At this operating condition undesirable vibration occurs when the compressor is attached directly to the ground. To reduce the vibration of the concrete floor that is resting on clay soil, it is proposed to isolate the compressor by mounting it on a square concrete block separated from the rest of the floor as shown. The density of concrete is 2400 kg/m3 and the spring constant for the soil is found to be 80 3 106 N/m. The geometry of the compressor leads to choosing a block that is 1.5 m by 1.5 m. Determine the depth h that will reduce the force transmitted to the ground by 75%.
