A roller coaster car is going over the top of a 16-m-radius circular rise. At the top of the hill, the passengers "feel light," with an apparent weight only 60% of their true weight. How fast is the coaster moving?
at the highest point due to his apparent weight , \
net weight = 100-60 = 40 % real weight = 0.4
now use a = g = V^2/r
V^2 = 0.4* 16 *9.8
V = 7.919 m/s

A roller coaster car is going over the top of a 12-m-radius circular rise. At the top of the hill, the passengers "feel light," with an apparent weight only 60% of their true weight. How fast is the coaster moving?
A roller coaster car is going over the top of a 15 m- radius circular rise. At the top of the hill, the passengers "feel light" with an apparant weight only 50% of their true weight. How fast is the roller coaster moving?
4) When sitting in a roller coaster going through a vertical loop of radius of 8.5 meters, your "ap- parent' weight is the normal force provided by the seat, while your "true" weight is the gravitational force (which is unluckily unchangeable at mg) a) How fast must you be moving at the top of the vertical loop to achieve weightlessness (i.e., to have no apparent weight)? b) If moving at the same speed on the bottom of the vertical loop,...
A roller-coaster car has a mass of 660 kg when fully loaded with passengers. The car passes over a hill of radius 15 m, as shown. At the top of the hill, the car has a speed of 8.2 m/s. What is the force of the track on the car at the top of the hill?
A huge spring launched a cart with passengers into a roller-coaster with a circular loop, which has a radius of 8.00 meters. The whole roller-coaster is frictionless. At the top of a circular loop, the cart is moving with a speed of 10.0 m/s. The total mass of the cart with the passengers is 450 kg. a. [5] With that speed, does the cart stay in contact with the roller-coaster at the top of the loop? b. [2] At the...
A roller-coaster car has a mass of 500 kg when fully loaded with passengers. The car passes over a hill of radius 15 m, as shown. At the top of the hill, the car has a speed of 8.0 m/s. What is the force oof the track on the car at the top of the hill?
As a roller coaster car crosses the top of a 40.0-m-diameter loop-the-loop, it's apparent weight is 1.90 times its true weight. What is the car's speed at the top? (The apparent weight is the same as the force of the tracks on the car)
As a roller coaster car crosses the top of a 52.0-m-diameter loop-the-loop, it's apparent weight is 1.60 times its true weight. What is the car's speed at the top? (The apparent weight is the same as the force of the tracks on the car)
8) A roller-coaster car has a mass of 1780 kg when fully loaded with passengers. The car passes over a hill of radius 15 m, as shown. At the top of the hill, the car has a speed of 17.9 m/s. What is the force of the track on the car at the top of the hill? 15 m
A roller-coaster car has a mass of 1040 kg when fully loaded with passengers. As the car passes over the top of a circular hall of radius 18 m, its speed is not changing. (a) At the top of the hill, what is the normal force (using the negative for the downward direction) on the car from the track if the car's speed is v = 7.4 m/s? (b) What is if v = 17 m/s? Use g = 9.81...
