Four people enter a 2,150 kg vehicle and discover that this compress the vehicle's springs by an additional 0.75 cm. Together the people have a mass of 310 kg.
If we pretend that the vehicle's suspension consists of one spring, then we can calculate its effective spring constant, k. What is the value of k (in N/m) for this vehicle?
The four people exit the vehicle. They push down upon it once and then release it. This causes the vehicle to undergo simple harmonic motion. What is the frequency (in Hz) of this vibrating motion?

Q3. [21pts] Four people of total mass 300 kg get into a car. The car springs are compressed and the body of the car is lowered by 3 cm. Whilst driving, the car hits a bump on the road and oscillates vertically with a period of 0.75 s. a. Derive the value of the spring constant for the car suspension (the acceleration due to gravity can be taken as g = 9.8 ms). b. Derive the total mass of the...
