Question:
A railroad car of mass 2000 kg traveling with a velocity of v=10m/s is stopped at the end of the tracks by a spring-damper system, as shown in the figure below. If the stiffness of the spring is k=40N/m and the damping constant is c=20Ns/mm determine
(a) the maximum displacement of the car after engaging the springs and damper,
(b) the time is taken to reach the maximum displacement.
