Suppose that a car weighing 4000 pounds is supported by four shock absorbers Each shock absorber has a spring constant of 6500 lbs/foot, so the effective spring constant for the system of 4 shock absorbers is 26000 lbs/foot. Assume no damping and determine the period of oscillation of the vertical motion of the car. Required:
a. Assume no damping and determine the period of oscillation of the vertical motion of the car.
b. After 10 seconds the car body is 1/3 foot above its equilibrium position and at the high point in its cycle. What were the initial conditions?

0.43622 seconds

0.9158 foot

-4.43 ffot/sec

Explanation:

we first find the period of oscillation

= 2π√w/gk

= 2π√4000/32x2600

= 2π√0.00481

= 2π0.0694

= 0.43622

b. we find the angular velocity

2π/T

= 2π/0.43622

= 14.41 rad/sec

we find displacement

rom the calculation in the attachment

Ф = -144.1

initial condition

1*cos(-144.1 rad)

= 0.9158 foot

initial velocity of the car

= (-1)(14.41)sin(ω(0)-144.1)

= -4.44 foot/sec

Molybdeum(mo)orruthenium (ru)actually, elements with similar chemical properties as technetium would bemn, re, and bh. this is because elements in the same group/family (column) have similar chemical properties. elements in the same period (row) have the same number of energy levels (or shells).

Answertraveling around a circular trackexplanation"traveling around a circular track" is the best answer as you could be traveling around a circular track at a constant speed. your velocity would therefore have the same magnitude but will always be constantly direction. since acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, the rate of change will only involve the direction of velocity and not the magnitude.wrong choices: "an object at rest" does not accelerate at all"increasing speed while traveling around a curve" means that the acceleration will not be constant due to only change in direction; it will be constant due to both magnitude and direction"an object in free fall" does not necessarily change direction
