-Dominant- [34]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

<h2>320 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 80 × 4

We have the final answer as

<h3>320 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

The suspension system of a 1700 kg automobile "sags" 7.7 cm when the chassis is placed on it. Also, the oscillation amplitude de
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

the spring constant k = 5.409*10^4 \ N/m

the value for the damping constant \\ \\b = 1.518 *10^3 \ kg/s

Explanation:

From Hooke's Law

F = kx\\\\k =\frac{F}{x}\\\\where \ F = mg\\\\k = \frac{mg}{x}\\\\given \ that:\\\\mass \ of \ each \ wheel = 425 \ kg\\\\x = 7.7cm = 0.077 m\\\\g = 9.8 \ m/s^2\\\\Then;\\\\k = \frac{425 \ kg * 9.8 \ m/s^2}{0.077 \ m}\\\\k = 5.409*10^4 \ N/m

Thus; the spring constant k = 5.409*10^4 \ N/m

The amplitude is decreasing 37% during one period of the motion

e^{\frac{-bT}{2m}}= \frac{37}{100}\\\\e^{\frac{-bT}{2m}}= 0.37\\\\\frac{-bT}{2m} = In(0.37)\\\\\frac{-bT}{2m} = -0.9943\\\\b = \frac{2m(0.9943)}{T}\\\\b = \frac{2m(0.9943)}{\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}}\\\\b = \frac{m(0.9943) \ ( \omega) )}{ \pi}

b = \frac{m(0.9943)(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m})}}{\pi}\\\\b = \frac{425*(0.9943)(\sqrt{\frac{5.409*10^4}{425}) }    }{3.14}\\\\b = 1518.24 \ kg/s\\\\b = 1.518 *10^3 \ kg/s

Therefore; the value for the damping constant \\ \\b = 1.518 *10^3 \ kg/s
