Look at the rock sitting on the hill in the picture above. Gravity should make the rock slide down the hill. What force is acting to balance gravity,keeping the rock in place? - D. friction
Centripetal force and momentum have to do with movement. Gravity cannot balance gravity.
A 300-kg bear grasping a vertical tree slides down at constant velocity. The friction force between the
tree and the bear is
Answer:
12.5 m/s
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Height (h) = 8 m
Final velocity (v) at 8 m above the lowest point =?
NOTE: Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
The velocity of the roller coaster at 8 m above the lowest point can be obtained as follow:
v² = u² + 2gh
v² = 0² + (2 × 9.8 × 8)
v² = 0 + 156.8
v² = 156.8
Take the square root of both side
v = √156.8
v = 12.5 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the roller coaster at 8 m above the lowest point is 12.5 m/s.
