The suspension of one wheel set (a so-called 'truck') on a semi tractor trailer supports about one sixth of the weight of the vehicle. If the stiffness (k) of one wheel set is equal to 1.912 x 10^5 N/m and the period of the oscillations after hitting a small bump is 1.479 sec, what is the mass the assembly is supporting? (The mass of the whole vehicle is six times this, but we just need the mass supported by one assembly.)
