A passenger railroad car has a total of 8 wheels. Springs on each wheel compress--slightly--when the car is loaded. Ratings for

the car give stiffness per wheel (the spring constant, treating the entire spring assembly as a single spring) as 2.8×10^7N/m. When 30 passengers, each with average mass of 80 kg, board the car, how much does the car move down on its spring suspension?

Answer:

Explanation:

mg = kx

x = mg/k

x = 30(80)(9.8)/2.8e7 = 0.00084 m  ≈ 1 mm

Two particles P and Q each moves towards ther along Straight Line (M)(N), 51m long. P starts from M with velocity 5m/s and const
bagirrra123 [75]

The time required by the particles are as follows:

a. t = 1.5 seconds

b. t = 3 seconds

c. t = 0.4 seconds

<h3>What is the time required?</h3>

The time required for the particles to be at several distances apart is calculated using the equation of motion given below:

S = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

a) Time required to be 30 m apart:

Assuming the distance covered by P is S1 and distance covered by Q is S2.

S1 + S2 = 51 - 30

S1 + S2 = 21

Substituting the values of velocity and acceleration in the equation of motion above:

5t + 1/2t^2 + 6t + 3t^2 = 21

2t^2 + 11t - 21 = 0

Solving for time, t by factorization, t = 1.5 seconds

b) Time required to meet:

Assuming the distance covered by P is S1 and distance covered by Q is S2.

S1 + S2 = 51

Substituting the values of velocity and acceleration in the equation of motion above:

5t + 1/2t^2 + 6t + 3t^2 = 51

2t^2 + 11t - 51 = 0

Solving for time, t by factorization, t = 3 seconds

c) Time required for velocity of P is ¾ of the velocity of Q:

Using the equation of motion: V = u + at

Vp = 3/4 Vq

4Vp= 3Vq

Substituting the values:

4(5 + t) = 3(6 + 3t)

5t = 2

t = 0.4 seconds
