Figure Q2(a) Profile of roller coaster: (a) The height of first hill height 20m, (b) Shape of the first hill and radius at the bottom ρ = 60 m, (c) The exit path height 5m, and (d) The loop to end the ride is a level ground, ignore the small height. Assuming a total mass of 1000kg, explain with calculations how would you design the roller coaster from start till the end of coaster ride: (i) the power of the electric motor to pull the coaster up the first hill.
Angular speed, acceleration and displacement
Angular acceleration is defined as the rate of change in angular velocity with respect to time. It has both magnitude and direction. So, it is a vector quantity.
Angular Position
Before diving into angular position, one should understand the basics of position and its importance along with usage in day-to-day life. When one talks of position, it’s always relative with respect to some other object. For example, position of earth with respect to sun, position of school with respect to house, etc. Angular position is the rotational analogue of linear position.
