Between the top of the first and the top of the second loop, the coaster has lost potential energy = mgh, where h = 22.2 - 15 = 7.2m
This energy would have converted to Kinetic. Write out an equation and the masses will cancel out. Does that hint help you to find the solution? If not, I will give you another hint.
Answer: The principle of conservation of energy, angular speed and centripetal force
Explanation:
At point A, the car experienced maximum of potential energy
As it moves down the hill, the potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases.
The maximum kinetic energy of the car is needed for the attainment of enough centripetal force to help the car move through the loop without falling .
Answer
2) 1.5×10-2 m
Explanation
The potential difference is related to the electric field by:
(1)
where
is the potential difference
E is the electric field
d is the distance
We want to know the distance the detectors have to be placed in order to achieve an electric field of
when connected to a battery with potential difference
Solving the equation (1) for d, we find
