Designing a shock absorber A shock absorber must bear a load of 250 kg (one-fourth the mass of the car). It is estimated that friction in the system can be modeled with a damping constant of c = 500 kg/s.
a. Find the value of the spring constant that provides critical damping for the system.
b. Solve the resulting
c. Graph the solution in part (b). What is the maximum displacement of the car according to this model?
d. Determine the effect of increasing the value of k in part (a) by 50% and by 100%.
e. What is the effect of decreasing the value of k in part (a) by 50%?
