Problem 1: Looping. The looping of a roller coaster has the radius R. The roller coaster starts at rest in height H over the deepest point of the looping (as shown in the figure). Neglect friction and consider the roller coaster as a mass point of mass m. Q.1) Express the total energy of the body. The reference point for the potential energy is at the center of the loop. Q.2) Find the speed of the body at the top...

Kingda Ka Roller Coaster (30 points) a) (6 pts) Ignoring friction, sketch a diagram showing the centripetal, gravitational, and normal forces acting of the passenger train of the Kingda Ka roller coaster as it rounds the bottom of the “Big Dip.” Draw each force with its correct direction. Draw the largest force as the longest vector, and the smallest force as the shortest vector.d) (6 pts) Ignoring friction, sketch a diagram showing the centripetal, gravitational, and normal forces acting of...
4. A roller-coaster with a loop-the-loop is designed so that the cars are a very strong spring that is compressed by the cars and then the cars are rele from rest for the launch. The track is frictionless except for a 12m long rough section before the loop. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the cars and the track in the rough section are 0.8 and 0.12, respectively. The loop has a radius of curvature of 18m. What...

In the
figure, a frictionless roller coaster car of mass m = 637 kg tops the first
hill with speed v0 = 19.3 m/s at
height h = 37.2 m. How much work
does the gravitational force do on the car from that point
to (a) point A, (b) point B, and (c) point C? If the gravitational
potential energy of the car-Earth system is taken to be zero
at C, what is its value when
the car is at...

At these two locatlons, the track Is clrcular, with the radli of curvature glven In the figure. The helghts at points A, B, and C are hA -10 m, hs-20 m, and hc-0. Assume friction is negligible and ignore the...
Suppose there is no friction on a roller coaster, a man of 80 Kg mass decides to skate on this roller coaster, the man is located at the highest point that is 32 m high, wants to get a speed record when he arrives to the lowest point. Determine: a) How much is the mechanical energy at the highest point, and still not moving? b) How much is the mechanical energy at the lowest point of the roller coaster? c)...

Problem 1 You are designing a roller coaster, shown in the figure below. An empty car has a mass of 120 kg. The radius of the vertical loop in the track is 12.0 m and the bottom of the loop is 5.0 m above the ground. Assuming the roller coaster is frictionless, how high must the car initially climb above the ground (point A) such that the speed of the car is 25.0 m/s at the top of the loop...
