Question:
Real mechanical system may involve the deflection of nonlinear springs. In Figure P8.34, a mass m is released a distance h above a nonlinear spring. The resistance force F of the spring is given by
F = ? (k1d + k2d 3/2)
Conservation of energy can be used to show that
Solve for d, given the following parameter values: k1 = 50,000 g/s2, k2 = 40g/(s2?m0.5), m = 90 g, g = 9.81 m/s2, and h = 0.45 m.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
