Question:
A railroad car of mass 2,000 kg traveling at a velocity v = 10 m/s is stopped at the end of the tracks by a spring-damper system, as shown in Fig. If the stiffness of the spring is k = 80 N/mm and the damping constant is c = 20 N-s/mm, determine
(a) the maximum displacement of the car after engaging the springs and damper and
(b) the lime taken to reach the maximum displacement.
