60 kg s0kg 10m H A section of a roller coaster track assumed to be frictionless is shown with two roller coaster cars. The first car has a mass of 60.0 kg and starts from rest at a height of 10.0 m above ground level. The second roller coaster car has a mass of 80.0 kg and is at rest at the bottom of the track. The two cars collide and stick together to each other and together they travel up the track and reach a maximum height H. c) What is the maximum height H they reach after the collision? Answer in meters.
Displacement, Velocity and Acceleration
In classical mechanics, kinematics deals with the motion of a particle. It deals only with the position, velocity, acceleration, and displacement of a particle. It has no concern about the source of motion.
Linear Displacement
The term "displacement" refers to when something shifts away from its original "location," and "linear" refers to a straight line. As a result, “Linear Displacement” can be described as the movement of an object in a straight line along a single axis, for example, from side to side or up and down. Non-contact sensors such as LVDTs and other linear location sensors can calculate linear displacement. Non-contact sensors such as LVDTs and other linear location sensors can calculate linear displacement. Linear displacement is usually measured in millimeters or inches and may be positive or negative.
Please use at least 4 significant figures throughout the entire problem! Also use 9.80m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity. DO NOT USE 10 M/S2 FOR THE ACCELERATION DUE TO GRAVITY!
