The specialty of an athlete on the women's track team is the
pole vault. She has a mass of 44 kg and her approach speed is 8.7
m/s. When she is directly above the bar, her speed is 1.7 m/s.
Neglecting air resistance and any energy absorbed by the pole,
determine the amount she has raised herself as she crosses the
bar.

A roller coaster car is pulled up the first (biggest) hill, 103 meters above the subsequent bottom of the hill. Assuming there's no friction, how fast will the car be moving when it reaches the bottom?
How fast is it moving at the top of a following loop-the-loop, which is 69 meters high?

The specialty of an athlete on the women's track team is the pole vault. She has a mass of 46 kg and her approach speed is 8.6 m/s. When she is directly above the bar, her speed is 1.3m/s. Neglecting air resistance and any energy absorbed by the pole, determine the amount she has raised herself as she crosses the bar.
1. A roller coaster at an amusement park has a dip that bottoms out in a vertical circle of radius r. A passenger feels the seat of the car pushing upward on her with a force equal to twice her weight as she goes through the dip. If r = 28.7 m, how fast is the roller coaster traveling at the bottom of the dip? 2. A 0.21-kg ball on a stick is whirled on a vertical circle at a...
1. A roller coaster has a 300 kg car. Assume the track is frictionless. a) The car starts at a speed 20 m/s on a horizontal track. It then goes through a circular loop. What is the speed of the car when it is at the top of the loop, h = 10 m above the horizontal track? b) What is the normal force applied from the track at the point? Does this force point upward or downward? Assume the...
21. A frictionless roller coaster car is released from rest on the track at a height of 50 m. How fast is the car going at the top of a circular loop with a radius- 12 m? (a) 19.8 m/s (b) 20.8 m/s (c) 21.7 m/s (d) 22.6 m/s (e) 23.6 m/s 7 22. A bullet (mass-0.0050 kg) is fired into a suspended block of wood (m-5.0 kg). Initially the wood is not moving. The bullet lodges in the wood....
1. An unknown mass (mı) on a rough horizontal surface is attached by a wire that passes over a massless, frictionless pulley to a 2.50kg mass (m2) as shown below. The bottom of the hanging mass is 1.50m above the floor. The system is released from rest at t-0s and the 2.50kg mass strikes the floor 0.82s later. The system is now returned to its initial position and a 1.20kg mass is placed on top of the block of mass...
