You built a pinball machine that has a banked circular track with radius O.34 m. The ball shooter launches the ball directly into this circular track before the ball enters into the game. You fire pin balls at a constant speed into the track and adjust the banking angle until it works. The banking angle is 21 degrees. Assume your pin ball machine is on a horizontal plane, how fast is the ball launched into the track, in m/s? Hint: I have a video on this problem about swing pendulum but the results are very similar, except a string length was given instead of path radius and tension was present instead of normal force. Assume friction is negligible.

Concept explainers

Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Question

You built a pinball machine that has a banked circular track with radius 0.34 m. The
ball shooter launches the ball directly into this circular track before the ball enters
into the game. You fire pin balls at a constant speed into the track and adjust the
banking angle until it works. The banking angle is 21 degrees. Assume your pin ball
machine is on a horizontal plane, how fast is the ball launched into the track, in m/s?
Hint: I have a video on this problem about swing pendulum but the results are very
similar, except a string length was given instead of path radius and tension was
present instead of normal force. Assume friction is negligible.
