QUESTION 12 A particularly scary roller coaster contains a loop-the-loop in which the car and rider are completely upside down. If the radius of the loop is 15.9 m with what minimum speed must the car traverse the loop so that the rider does not fall out while upside down at the top? Assume the rider is not strapped to the car. 12.5 m/s O 11.4 m/s 14.9 m/s O 10.1 m/s

A pendulum consists of a small object called a bob hanging from a light cord of fixed length, with the top end of the cord fixed, as represented in Figure OQ6.4. The bob moves without friction, swinging equally high on both sides. It moves from its turning point A through point B and reaches its maximum speed at point C. (a) Of these points, is there a point where the bob has nonzero radial acceleration and zero tangential acceleration? If so, which point? What is the direction of its total acceleration at (his point? (b) Of these points, is there a point where the bob has nonzero tangential acceleration and zero radial acceleration? If so, which point? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? (c) Is there a point where the bob has no acceleration? If so, which point?

A car is driving around a flat, circularly curved road with a radius of 5.00 102 m. The mass of the car is 1500 kg, and the coefficient of static friction between its tires and the road is 0.30. a. Using the work of Example 6.7 (pages 202203), what is the maximum speed the car can have without slipping? b. What is the magnitude of the centripetal force on the car if it were to travel at the maximum speed around the track?
A roller coaster at the Six Flags Great America amusement park in Gurnee, Illinois, incorporates some clever design technology and some basic physics. Each vertical loop, instead of being circular, is shaped like a teardrop (Fig. P5.22). The cars ride on the inside of the loop at the top, and the speeds are fast enough to ensure the cars remain on the track. The biggest loop is 40.0 in high. Suppose the speed at the top of the loop is 13.0 m/s and the corresponding centripetal acceleration of the riders is 2g. (a) What is the radius of the arc of the teardrop at the top? (b) If the total mass of a car plus the riders is M, what force does the rail exert on the car at the top? (c) Suppose the roller coaster had a circular loop of radius 20.0 m. If the care have the same speed, 13.0 m/s at the top, what is the centripetal acceleration of the riders at the top? (d) Comment on the normal force at the top in the situation described in part (c) and on the advantages of having teardrop-shaped loops.

QUESTION 1 A boy takes a 2.0-kg rock and ties it to the end of a light, uniform, 0.80-m-long rope. He then grabs the other end of the rope and swings the rock in a vertical circle.

M = 825kg R = 9m e = 75° D = 11m We're trying to design a roller coaster such that a cart with total mass m = 825kg with 4 wheels (m = 5.5kg, r = 0.25m) can safely pass through a loop of radiusr = 9m. The cart must go down a ramp which makes an angle of 75 degrees then travel across a flat section before starting the loop. The wheels roll without slipping during this travel, and while there is no friction between the wheels and the track, there is friction inside the wheel itself. A constant friction force of 6N acts a distance of 8cm from the rotation point of the wheels. What is the minimum height, h, that we can start the cart at to safely make it through the loop? You can approximate the wheels as uniform rings.
