Answer:
a) k= 3232.30 N / m, b) f = 4,410 Hz
Explanation:
In this exercise, the car + spring system is oscillating in the form of a simple harmonic motion, as the four springs are in parallel, the force is the sum of the 4 Hocke forces.
The expression for the angular velocity is
w = √k/m
the angular velocity is related to the period
w = 2π / T
we substitute
T = 2 √m/ k
a) empty car
k = 4π² m / T²
k = 4 π² 1310/2 2
k = 12929.18 N / m
This is the equivalent constant of the short springs
F1 + F2 + F3 + F4 = k_eq x
k x + kx + kx + kx = k_eq x
k_eq = 4 k
k = k_eq / 4
k = 12 929.18 / 4
k= 3232.30 N / m
b) the frequency of oscillation when carrying four passengers.
In this case the plus is the mass of the vehicle plus the masses of the passengers
m_total = 1360 + 4 70
m_total = 1640 kg
angular velocity and frequency are related
w = 2pi f
we substitute
2 pi f = Ra K / m
in this case the spring constant changes us
k_eq = 12929.18 N / m
f = 1 / 2π √ 12929.18 / 1640
f = π / 2 2.80778
f = 4,410 Hz
