Answer:

At the top of the hill.

Explanation:

As the roller coaster goes up the hill, kinetic energy (K.E) decreases, gravitational potential energy (G.P.E) increases .

As it reach the top of the hill, K.E becomes zero and G.P.E reaches <em>m</em><em>a</em><em>x</em><em>i</em><em>m</em><em>u</em><em>m</em> .

As it goes down the hill, K.E starts to increase and G.P.E decrease .

At the bottom of the hill, K.E reaches <em>maximum</em> and G.P.E becomes zero .

Andru [333]

Answer:

Δω = -5.4 rad/s

αav = -3.6 rad/s²

Explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

           Initial angular velocity = ωi = 2.70 rad/s

           Final angular velocity = ωf = -2.70 rad/s (negative sign is  

           due to the movement in opposite direction)

           Change in time period = Δt = 1.50 s

<u>Required</u>:

           Change in angular velocity = Δω = ?

           Average angular acceleration = αav = ?

<u>Solution</u>:

          <u>Angular velocity (Δω):</u>

               Δω = ωf - ωi

               Δω = -2.70 - 2.70

               Δω = -5.4 rad/s.

          <u> Average angular acceleration (αav):</u>

               αav = Δω/Δt

               αav = -5.4/1.50

              αav = -3.6 rad/s²

Since, the angular velocity is decreasing from 2.70 rad/s (in counter clockwise direction) to rest and then to -2.70 rad/s (in clockwise direction) so, the change in angular velocity is negative.

3. Write any two types of force.​
Lerok [7]

Answer:

An <u>applied force</u> is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object. If a person is pushing a desk across the room, then there is an applied force acting upon the object. The applied force is the force exerted on the desk by the person.

A <u>friction force</u> is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object. For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts a friction force in the opposite direction of its motion. Friction results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely, causing intermolecular attractive forces between molecules of different surfaces. As such, friction depends upon the nature of the two surfaces and upon the degree to which they are pressed together. The maximum amount of friction force that a surface can exert upon an object can be calculated using the formula below:

F_{frict} = µ • F_{norm}
