You are not on earth. A roller coaster includes a long ramp that leads into a Loop-D-Loop. A
carriage starts from rest at the top of the ramp and rolls downward (the system is frictionless).
The carriage is additionally propelled by a jetpack.
(a) Choose values for the following. None of them can be 0.
i. The value of gravitational acceleration on this planet (on Earth it would be 9.81m/s2)
ii. The mass of the carriage
iii. The initial height of the carriage. It must be tall enough for the carriage to make it
around the Loop-D-Loop.
iv. The angle of inclination of the ramp.
v. The radius of the Loop-D-Loop
vi. The force exerted by the jetpack.
(b) Draw a photo of the carriage at the top of the ramp, and another at the top of the Loop.
(c) Calculate the total distance from the top of the ramp to the top of the Loop.
(d) Calculate the velocity of the carriage at the top of the Loop-D-Loop.
(e) Calculate all forces acting on the carriage at the top of the loop
