A 1000 kg car carrying four 80 kg persons is traveling over “washboard" speed bumps spaced at
regular intervals. The bumps are located 4 m apart. The car is observed to bounce with maximum
amplitude when its speed is 16 km/h. The car now stops and the four people get out. By how
much does the car body rise on its suspension owing to the decrease in weight?

- A nylon siring has mass 5.50 g and length L = 86.0 cm. The lower end is tied to the floor, and the upper end is tied to a small set of wheels through a slot in a track on which the wheels move (Fig. P18.76). The wheels have a mass that is negligible compared with that of the siring, and they roll without friction on the track so that the upper end of the string is essentially free. Figure P18.76 At equilibrium, the string is vertical and motionless. When it is carrying a small-amplilude wave, you may assume the string is always under uniform tension 1.30 N. (a) Find the speed of transverse waves on the siring, (b) The string's vibration possibilities are a set of standing-wave states, each with a node at the fixed bottom end and an antinode at the free top end. Find the node-antinode distances for each of the three simplest states, (c) Find the frequency of each of these states.arrow_forwardCheck Your Understanding Identify an object that undergoes uniform circular motion.
