Hello,
First check the appendix. This is a photo of the given problem and my FBD The description is in dutch.
The translation:
If the springs are coupled to eachother without the mass they are at resting position. There is no tension in the springs. When the mass is applied the springs will extend. Thereafter a punch (i.e. krachtstoot) is applied.
The only value given is 60 cm
The mass and spring constant and punch i declared myself.
Mass, m = 2kg
Spring constant, k = 10 kg/m
Punch, Fp = 100 N
Now where do i begin? Im not sure what my second step should be? I cannot calculate the Y position etc. (First step was draw fbd)
Do you guys have an hint?
