The rotor shaft of a large electric motor supported between short bearings at both the ends shows a deflection of $$1.8$$ mm in the middle of the rotor. Assuming the rotor to be perfectly balanced and supported at knife edges at both the ends, the likely critical speed (in rpm) of the shaft is

$$350$$

$$705$$

$$2810$$

$$4430$$

The differential equation governing the vibrating system is GATE ME 2006 Theory of Machines - Vibrations Question 70 English

$$m\mathop x\limits^{ \bullet \bullet } + c\mathop x\limits^{ \bullet \bullet } + k\left( {x - y} \right) = 0$$

$$m\left( {\mathop x\limits^{ \bullet \bullet } - \mathop y\limits^{ \bullet \bullet } } \right) + c\left( {\mathop x\limits^ \bullet - \mathop y\limits^ \bullet } \right) + kx = 0$$

$$m\mathop x\limits^{ \bullet \bullet } + c\left( {\mathop x\limits^ \bullet - \mathop y\limits^ \bullet } \right) + kx = 0$$

$$m\left( {\mathop x\limits^{ \bullet \bullet } - \mathop y\limits^{ \bullet \bullet } } \right) + c\left( {\mathop x\limits^ \bullet - \mathop y\limits^ \bullet } \right) + k\left( {x - y} \right) = 0$$

There are four samples P, Q, R and S, with natural frequencies 64, 96, 128 and 256 Hz, respectively. There are mounted on test setups for conducting vibration experiments. If a loud pure not of frequency 144Hz is produced by some instrument, which of the samples will show the most perceptible induced vibration?
