A skier starts from rest at the top of a hill. The skier coasts down the hill and up a second hill, as the drawing illustrates. The crest of
the second hill is circular, with a radius of 35.7 m. Neglect friction and air resistance. VWhat must be the height h of the first hill so that
the skier just loses contact with the snow at the crest of the second hill?
You are designing a ski jump ramp for the next Winter Olympics. You need to calculate the vertical height hh from the starting gate to the bottom of the ramp. The skiers push off hard with their ski poles at the start, just above the starting gate, so they typically have a speed of 2.0 m/sm/s as they reach the gate. For safety, the skiers should have a speed of no more than 30.0 m/sm/s when they reach the bottom of the ramp. You determine that for a 90.0 kgkg skier with good form, friction and air resistance will do total work of magnitude 4000 JJ on him during his run down the slope.
What is the maximum height hh for which the maximum safe speed will not be exceeded?
Imagine a country side region with several smooth hills. A mass m slides over these hills on a day when they are covered with ice. Ignore friction. The top of the first hill is 7.0 m high from the ground level and the speed of the block at the top of the hill is 15m/s. Next hill is at 3.0 m from the zero level, what is the speed of the block when it is at the top of this hill?

- A roller-coaster car shown in Figure P7.82 is released from rest from a height h and then moves freely with negligible friction. The roller-coaster track includes a circular loop of radius R in a vertical plane. (a) First suppose the car barely makes it around the loop; at the top of the loop, the riders are upside down and feel weightless. Find the required height h of the release point above the bottom of the loop in terms of R. (b) Now assume the release point is at or above the minimum required height. Show that the normal force on the car at the bottom of the loop exceeds the normal force at the top of the loop by six times the cars weight. The normal force on each rider follows the same rule. Such a large normal force is dangerous and very uncomfortable for the riders. Roller coasters are therefore not built with circular loops in vertical planes. Figure P5.22 (page 149) shows an actual design.arrow_forwardA skier starts from rest at the top of a hill. The skier coasts down the hill and up a second hill, as the drawing illustrates.

What is the maxium height hm in meters?arrow_forwardYou are staying in a hotel on the 4th floor (12 m from the ground) with a balcony overlooking a pool.
