Question 20
A spring balance is attached to the roof of the car and a mass m is hanging from it. When the car is standing on the horizontal road, the balance correctly tells us the weight of the mass. The car is travelling with a constant horizontal velocity v on the undulating path defined by the function

where y is the height above road surface.
Find the weight of the mass in spring balance as function of time t. We can assume that while going up on the undulating surface, the car floor remains almost horizontal
