Question

Transcribed Image Text:A roller coaster reaches the top of the steepest hill with a
speed of 6.0 km/h. It then descends the hill, which is at an
average angle of 45° and is 45.0 m long. What will its speed
be when it reaches the bottom? Assume µk = 0.12.

The value of d = 4.15m, and x and y are measured in meters as usual. Now suppose the blocks starts on the track at x = 3.35 m. The block is given a push to the left and begins to slide up the track, eventually reaching its maximum height at x = 0, at which point it turns around and begins sliding down.

- A water slide is constructed so that swimmers, starting from rest at the top of the slide, leave the end of the slide traveling horizontally. As the drawing shows, one person hits the water 5.00 m from the end of the slide in a time of 0.632 s after leaving the slide. Ignore friction and air resistance, find the height H in the drawing.

A large piece of debris falls in front of your view and you immediate slam on the brakes, leaving a skid mark of 30.5 m (100-feet) long before coming to a stop. A policeman sees your car stopped on the road, looks at the skid mark, and gives you a ticket for traveling over the 13.4 m/s (30 mph) speedlimit. Draw the FBD of the car with complete details.arrow_forwardA semitrailer is coasting downhill along a mountain highway when its brakes fail.
