The speed of the car at the bottom of the dip given the parameters in the equation is; v = 7 m/s

  • Since the motion is circular, it means that the acceleration of the car will be acting towards the centre of the circle and as a result the acceleration will be acting upwards with the formula; a = v²/r
  • Now, if the mass of a passenger is denoted as m, then the net force on the passenger will be;

F = mv²/r

  • Also, in the roller coaster, two other forces are acting which are the force of gravity(F_g) acting downward and also the force of the seat(F_seat) acting upwards. Thus, from equilibrium of forces, we can say that;

F_seat - F_g= mv²/r

Where F_g= mg.

Thus; F_seat - mg mv²/r

1.5mg - mg mv²/r

divide through by m to get; 0.5g = v²/r

Plug in the relevant values;

0.5(9.8) = v²/10

v² = 0.5 x 9.8 × 10

v² = 49

v = 7

The speed of Car is 7 m/s

1. in an ecosystem with four levels—producers, primary consumers, and two higher-level consumers—describe where the decomposers
attashe74 [19]
Decomposers, as the name suggests, decompose dead plants or animals into simple compounds. They feed on dead producers from the first levels or consumers from other three levels. Breaking them down, decomposers release nutrients that producers can use.
In an ecosystem with four levels, the first level are producers, such as plants and algae. On the second trophic level, there are primary consumers, herbivores that eat plants, for example, a deer, a rabbit, a grasshopper. The next trophic level belongs to secondary consumers that eat herbivores, for example, a wolf, a fox. The highest level is tertiary consumers that eat carnivores, for example, a bear, an eagle.
