An engineer is working on a new roller coaster, and he begins by making a scale model. On this model, a car of total mass 0.50 kg moves with negligible friction along the track shown in the figure. The car is given an initial speed vo = 1.5 m/s at the top of the first hill of height 2.0 m. Point A is located at a height of 1.9 m at the top of the second hill, the upper part of which is a circular arc of radius 0.95 m. 0.50 kg ...

YOU HAVE TO SOLVE THE QUESTION (with parts a,b.c) ON AN EMPTY PAPER prepared on the Attendance Part. QUESTION: A very small block of mass m= 0.3 kg is released from rest at point A at a height h= 2.3 m above the ground. It slides down the track as shown in the figure. It reaches point B with speed V= 3.8 m/s. Frorm point B it slides on a horizontal surface a distance d= 1.2 m to point C which is at the bottom of a vertical circular loop of radius R= 16 cm. The circular section of the track (C to D to E) is frictionless but for the remaining section (A to B to C) there is friction. 3. a) Calculate the AE,, (change in thermal energy) for the system between points A and B. b) The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the horizontal surface (between B and C) is Hk Calculate u, so that the force on the block by the track at point D is equal to 2mg. c) Find the minimum speed V, with which the block must pass through point C, if it is just not to fall off at the top (point E)…

A penguin slides down an icy incline on his stomach, as shown in the diagram below. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the incline and the penguin's stomach is 0.15. The angle of the incline is 0 = 25 degrees. The total distance down the incline is 25 meters. The penguin gets a running start so his speed is 2.5 m/s when he begins to slide down the incline. What is the penguin's speed when he reaches the bottom of the incline? Hint: use Newton's 2nd law to calculate the acceleration of the penguin on the incline, then use kinematic equations to calculate the speed of the penguin when he reaches the bottom. 2.5 m/s 25 m 25°
A 1 kilogram bead moves with constant total mechanical energy on a frictionless wire track. The track is in a vertical plane and consists of straight segments and circular segments. For example, points B, F, G, H are on straight segments. Points A, C, D, E are on circular track segments. Point A is at the top of the track and point H is the lowest point of the track. The bead is shown initially at point C with a velocity 5.6 m/s down as represented by the velocity arrow. The circular portion of track that includes points A, C, D has a radius 3.2 meters.

You set up a ramp as depicted to practice your skateboard skills. The ramp is a wooden board L=8.0 m long and is propped up between the ground level at one end and h=1.3 m at the other end. You approach the ramp from the left (lower ground) at 11 m/s. How fast are you once you get past the ramp (higher ground)? Assume your mass is 105 kg and friction is negligible.

A small block slides down a frictionless track whose shape is described by y = (x^2) /d for x<0 and by y = -(x^2)/d for x>0. The value of d is 3.88 m, and x and y are measured in meters as usual. Suppose the block starts from rest on the track, at x = -2.99 m. What will the block s speed be when it reaches x = 0? 6.72 m/s 4.75 m/s 3.33 m/s 9.41 m/s
A helicopter is dellvering food in an emergency situation, where it is difficult to land. The engineer is tasked with determining what heights the package could be dropped without breaking. She knows that if the package strikes the ground faster than the critical speed of 62.0mph, then the package will break. Neglect drag At what height would the package hit the ground with the critical speed (in given units? Could the package be safely dropped from a height of 30m? yes no
