Answer: after 1.75 seconds

Explanation:

The only force acting on the ball is the gravitational force, so the acceleration will be:

a = -9.8 m/s^2

the velocity can be obtained by integrating over time:

v = -9.8m/s^2*t + v0

where v0 is the initial velocity; v0 = -7.95 m/s.

v = -9.8m/s^2*t - 7.95 m/s.

For the position we integrate again:

p = -4.9m/s^2*t^2 - 7.95 m/s*t + p0

where p0 is the initial position: p0 = 29m

p =  -4.9m/s^2*t^2 - 7.95 m/s*t + 29m

Now we want to find the time such that the position is equal to zero:

0 = -4.9m/s^2*t^2 - 7.95 m/s*t + 29m

Then we solve the Bhaskara's equation:

t = \frac{7.95 +- \sqrt{7.95^2 +4*4.9*29} }{-2*4.9} = \frac{7.95 +- 25.1}{9.8}

Then the solutions are:

t = (7.95 + 25.1)/(-9.8) = -3.37s

t = (7.95 - 25.1)/(-9.8) = 1.75s

We need the positive time, then the correct answer is 1.75s

The formula is x = 1/2 at^2 and I have managed to fill in the variables as this. d = 1/2 9.81 m/s^2 1^2
Artyom0805 [142]

Right, as you mentioned in the comments, you find d by plugging in the different values of t.

For t=1\,\mathrm s, we have

d=\dfrac12\left(9.81\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(1\,\mathrm s)^2

d=\left(4.905\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\left(1\,\mathrm s^2\right)

d=4.905\,\mathrm m

Similarly, for t=2\,\mathrm s, you get

d=\dfrac12\left(9.81\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\left(2\,\mathrm s\right)

d=\left(4.905\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\left(4\,\mathrm s^2\right)

d=19.62\,\mathrm m

A 100 kg roller coaster comes over the first hill at 2 m/sec (vo). The height of the first hill (h) is 20 meters. See roller dia
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

For the 100 kg roller coaster that comes over the first hill of height 20 meters at 2 m/s, we have:

1) The total energy for the roller coaster at the <u>initial point</u> is 19820 J

2) The potential energy at <u>point A</u> is 19620 J

3) The kinetic energy at <u>point B</u> is 10010 J

4) The potential energy at <u>point C</u> is zero

5) The kinetic energy at <u>point C</u> is 19820 J

6) The velocity of the roller coaster at <u>point C</u> is 19.91 m/s

1) The total energy for the roller coaster at the <u>initial point</u> can be found as follows:

E_{t} = KE_{i} + PE_{i}

Where:

KE: is the kinetic energy = (1/2)mv₀²

m: is the mass of the roller coaster = 100 kg

v₀: is the initial velocity = 2 m/s

PE: is the potential energy = mgh

g: is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h: is the height = 20 m

The<em> total energy</em> is:

E_{t} = KE_{i} + PE_{i} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{0}^{2} + mgh = \frac{1}{2}*100 kg*(2 m/s)^{2} + 100 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*20 m = 19820 J

Hence, the total energy for the roller coaster at the <u>initial point</u> is 19820 J.

   

2) The <em>potential energy</em> at point A is:

PE_{A} = mgh_{A} = 100 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*20 m = 19620 J

Then, the potential energy at <u>point A</u> is 19620 J.

3) The <em>kinetic energy</em> at point B is the following:

KE_{A} + PE_{A} = KE_{B} + PE_{B}

KE_{B} = KE_{A} + PE_{A} - PE_{B}

Since

KE_{A} + PE_{A} = KE_{i} + PE_{i}

we have:

KE_{B} = KE_{i} + PE_{i} - PE_{B} =  19820 J - mgh_{B} = 19820 J - 100kg*9.81m/s^{2}*10 m = 10010 J

Hence, the kinetic energy at <u>point B</u> is 10010 J.

4) The <em>potential energy</em> at <u>point C</u> is zero because h = 0 meters.

PE_{C} = mgh = 100 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*0 m = 0 J

5) The <em>kinetic energy</em> of the roller coaster at point C is:

KE_{i} + PE_{i} = KE_{C} + PE_{C}            

KE_{C} = KE_{i} + PE_{i} = 19820 J      

Therefore, the kinetic energy at <u>point C</u> is 19820 J.

6) The <em>velocity</em> of the roller coaster at point C is given by:

KE_{C} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{C}^{2}

v_{C} = \sqrt{\frac{2KE_{C}}{m}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*19820 J}{100 kg}} = 19.91 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the roller coaster at <u>point C</u> is 19.91 m/s.
