Suppose that you are designing a new shock absorber for an automobile. The car has a mass of 500 kg (kilograms) and the combined effect of the springs in the suspension system is that of a spring constant of 2000 N/m (i. e.each of the four springs has a spring constant of 500 N/m). Required:
a. Before a damping mechanism is installed in the car, when the car hits a bump it will bounce up and down. How may bounces will a rider experience in the minute right after the car hits a bump?
b. Your job is to design a damping mechanism which eliminates oscillations when the car hits a bump. What is the minimum value of the effective damping constant that can be used?

Asap for seven months an ice creams vendor collects data showing the number of cones sold a day (c) and the degrees above 70 degrees f the vendor finds that there is a positive linear association between c and t that is the best modeled by this equation c=3.7t+98 which statement is true? the model predicts that the average number of cones sold in a day is 3.7 the model predicts that the average number of cones sold i a day is 98 a model predicts that for each additional degree that the high temperature is above 70 degres f the total of number of cones sold increases by 3.7 the model predicts for each additional degree that the high temperature is above 70 degrees f the total number of cones sold increasingly by 98
