46. Automotive standards call for bumpers that sustain essentially
no damage in a 4-km/h collision with a stationary object. As an
automotive engineer, you'd like to improve on that. You've de-
veloped a spring-mounted bumper with effective spring constant
1.6 MN/m. The springs can compress up to 6.0 cm before dam-
age occurs. For a 1200-kg car, what do you claim as the maxi-
