(choose chapter or problem)

A nonlinear automobile spring is tested by having a 150 -lb cylinder impact it with a speed \(v_0= 12 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}\). The spring resistance is shown in the accompanying graph. Determine the maximum deflection \(\delta\) of the spring with and without the nonlinear term present. The small platform at the top of the spring has negligible weight.
