While conducting a bounce test: Technician A says that the bumper should be pushed two or three times downward with considerable weight applied on each corner of the vehicle. The bumper should be released after each push and the vehicle should oscillate about 1½ cycles and then settle. Technician B says that one free upward bounce should stop the vertical chassis movement if the shock absorber or strut provides proper spring control. If the vehicle’s bumper does more than 1½ free upward bounces, the shock absorber or strut is defective. Who is correct?

TRUE OR FALSE1. The primary and secondary suspensions are designed to achieve very poor ride quality, not safe performance during curve negotiation and bad dynamic behavior on a tangent track. 2. Each bogie frame is connected to car body through side bearings. 3. the wheel sets are located within a frame, either a bogie or directly in the vehicle, and are restrained by a large yaw stiffness. 4. When considering maintenance for railways, often the consequences can easily be changed. 5. Maintenance can only have positive effects. 6. Corrective maintenance also called as down systems. 7. the disadvantage of this system is the relatively low frequency of maintenance.

explain the action of the conventional shock absorber on both compression (jouce) and rebound strokes
