Why is the following situation impossible? A new highspeed roller coaster is claimed to be so safe that the passengers do not need to wear seat belts or any other restraining device. The coaster is designed with a vertical circular section over which the coaster travels on the inside of the circle so that the passengers are upside down for a short time interval. The radius of the circular section is 12.0 m, and the coaster enters the bottom of the circular section at a speed of 22.0 m/s. Assume the coaster moves without friction on the track and model the coaster as a particle.
A 108 kg crate slides down a ramp, starting from rest. The ramp is inclined at an angle of 36.4
degrees with respect to the horizontal and has a height of 1.03 m. The crate is placed on
frictionless casters so that it slides down the ramp without friction. What is the final speed of the
crate (in m/s) just as it reaches the bottom of the ramp? Use g = 9.81 m/s².

Riders sit on seats that swivel to remain horizontal. The Ferris wheel rotates so that riders move at a constant speed, v = 5 m/s. Consider a rider whose mass, m = 70 kg. Assume that the acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s₂. H B * L. How much work does the force exerted by the seat do on the rider as they move from point E to point ?

She has assembled the track so that it contains a large hill to let the car roll down, followed by a series of small hills and then a short, flat section on the floor. The car starts at the top of the hill, which is 137 cm above the short, flat section. If there were no friction or air resistance, how fast would the car be moving when it reached the flat section at the bottom? If the car is measured to be moving with a speed of 3.24 m/s on the flat section at the bottom, then how much energy was lost due to friction and air resistance? The car's mass is 64 grams. Malar adds to the track so that the car's release point is even higher now. How high would the release point need to be in order for the car to have the speed you found in part (a) when it reaches the short, flat section at the bottom? Assume that the same amount energy that was lost in part (b) is also lost in this case.arrow_forward

- Q. In Figure, a block slides along a path that is without friction until the block reaches the section of length L=0.85 m, which begins at height h=2.0 m on a ramp of angle 0=45°. In that section, the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.40. The block passes through point A with a speed of 8.0 m/s. If the block can reach point B (where the friction ends), what is its speed there, and if it cannot, what is its greatest height above A?
