If the object is isolated from the base and decelerated to a complete stop
by a constant force
mw ,where w is the deceleration magnitude ( w > 0),
the peak magnitude of this force is F 2 = mw .For F 2 <F 1 , it is necessary
that w<a . The deceleration pulse of the object then has the form

The deceleration time of the object is V/w and the deceleration path is

Since w<a , the deceleration path of the object is longer than the deceleration
path of the base. By subtracting P b from P o we find the rattlespace

Equation (2.33) is valid also for a system which is in a state of rest until
the shock pulse is applied to the base and accelerates it with a constant
acceleration a to a velocity V . In this case, the system of Eq. (2.24) is
