Answer

$90.81lb.ft/rad$

Work Step by Step

We know that $\omega_n=\sqrt{\frac{K_{eq}}{m_{eq}}}$ $\implies \omega_n=\sqrt{\frac{K}{0.207}}$..eq(1) We also know that $T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega_n}$ $\implies \omega_n=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{20}{3}\pi$..eq(2) Comparing eq(1) and eq(2), we obtain: $\frac{20}{3}\pi=\sqrt{\frac{K}{0.207}}$ This simplifies to: $K=90.81lb.ft/rad$
