Car bumpers are designed to limit the extent of damage to the car in the case of low-velocity collisions. Consider a 3900 lb passenger car impacting a concrete barrier while traveling at a speed of 4.0 mph. Model the car as a particle, and consider two types of bumpers: (1) a simple linear spring with constant k and (2) a linear spring of constant k in parallel with a shock-absorbing unit generating a nearly constant f
