A rotating shaft has four masses A, B, C, and D attached to it. The planes that these masses rotating at are spaced equally. The magnitude of the masses are 6.5, 11.8, 4.2, and 5.1 kg, respectively. Calculate the radii that the masses should be placed at from the center of the shaft such that the system be in a complete dynamic balance. The shaft angular speed varies between 1760 and 1875 r.p.m. Assume whatever dimension or quantity that you decide it is necessary.
