Question
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.
G
The "direction key" shows eight arrow directions
labeled 1 to 8. To use the "direction key", consider the
vector mentioned in each question. Match the direction
of the vector with the arrow in the key that best shows
the direction of the required vector.
