A 1000 kgcar carrying four82kgpeople travel over a 鈥渨ashboard鈥 dirt road with corrugations" width="9">4.0mapart. The car bounces with maximum amplitude when its speed is 16 km/h. When the car stops, and the people get out, by how much does the car body rise on its suspension?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The rise in the car suspension is 5.0 cm.

Step by step solution

01

Given

  1. Mass of the car:M=1000鈥塳驳
  2. Mass of each person in the car:m=82鈥塳驳
  3. The distance between corrugationsx=4.0鈥尘
  4. The speed at which amplitude is maximum:vm=16鈥塳尘/hr=4.44m/s
02

The concept

The spring of the car suspension gets compressed whenever it passes over the corrugations. Thus, the spring exhibits simple harmonic motion as it passes over the washboard dirt road.

The restoring force developed during the deformation:F=-kx

The time period of an oscillation produced in the car:T=2

The angular frequency of oscillation,=km

Calculate how much the car body rises on its suspension

When the car along with the people travels over the corrugations, the compression force on the suspension obeys Hooke鈥檚 law. Hence, we can write the equation for the suspension as

F=kxi

Here,F=(M+4m)gandxi= compression when people are inside the car

So, we have (M+4m)g=kxi

Giving us

xi=Fk=(M+4m)gk..(1)

Similarly, when people get off the car, the car travels, again we write the equation as

F'=kxf

whereF=Mg andxf=compression when onlythecar is travelling

So, we have

Mg=kxf

Giving us

xf=Fk=Mgk....(2)

When the car travels on the corrugations, suspension gets periodically compressed. The distance between the two consecutive impulses isthesame as the distance between the corrugations. i.e.d=4.0m.

Hence, the period of the oscillations of the suspension

T=dv

v is the speed of the car.

The angular frequency of the car

=2T=2vd

And we have

=k(M+4m)

As the car is carrying people

Hence, we determine the expression for k as鈥

k=(M+4m)2=(M+4m)(2vd)2.(3)

To determine the rise in suspension, we use equations (1), (2) and (3) as.

Rise=xixf=(M+4m)gkMgk=4mgk=4mg(M+4m)(d2v)2

For the given values, the rise of suspension is given as-

Rise=482鈥塳驳9.8鈥尘/s2(1000鈥塳驳+(482鈥塳驳))(4.0鈥尘鈥23.144.4鈥尘/s)2=0.05m=5.0cm

The suspension rises by 0.05鈥尘.
