The shock absorbers in an old car with mass 1160 kg are completely worn out. When a 970 N person climbs slowly into the car, it deforms 3.0 cm. The car is now towed down the road (with the person inside). The car hits a bump, and starts oscillating up and down with an amplitude of 6.4 cm.
Model the car and person as a single body on a spring and find the period and frequency of oscillations.

Water is siphoned from a large tank and discharges into the atmosphere through a 50-mm diameter tube. the end of the tube is b = 2.6 m below the tank bottom which is a = 6.7 m deep, and viscous effects are negligible. determine the maximum height h over which the water can be siphoned without cavitation occurring. atmospheric pressure is 101.4 kpa, and the water vapor pressure is 1.79 kpa (absolute). report your answer in meters to two decimal places.
