What causes the rider on a roller coaster to experience the + or - g’s if gravity always remains the same on earth

Physics

MA_775_DIABLO [31]3 years ago

Answer:

Yes both = and - g can be felt by a rider in a roller coaster.

Explanation:

It is crucial to understand how we feel gravity in this case.

We humans have no sensory organs to directly detect magnitude and direction like some birds and other creatures, but then how do we we feel gravity?

When we stand on our feet we feel our weight due to the normal reaction of floor on our feet trying to keep us stand and our weight trying to crush us down. In an elevator we feel difference in our weight (difference magnitudes of gravity) but actually we are feeling the differences in normal reactions under different accelerations of the elevator.

In the case of roller coaster you will feel +g as you  sit on a chair in it, but will feel -g when you are in upside down position as roller coaster move.

When you are seated you will feel the normal reaction of seat on you giving you the feeling +g and the support of the buckles to stay in the roller coaster when you are upside down will give you the -g feeling.

<u>This is just the physics approach</u>, a biological approach can be given in association with sensors relating to ears.

What is the netforce?
Kipish [7]

Answer:

6 Newtons to the left.

Explanation:

We can convert  this into a generic algebra equation by giving directions positive and negative values.

The 6 will be positive, and the 10 and 2 will be negative.

Add 10 and 2 to have 12.

6-12 = -6.

Therefore you have 6 newtons to the left (negative).

A 295-kg object and a 595-kg object are separated by 4.10 m.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

a)F=3 x 10⁻⁷ N

b)x=2.405 m

Explanation:

Given that

m₁=295 kg

m₂=595 kg

d= 4.1 m

a)

m₃=63 kg

r=d/2 = 2.05 m

The force between the mass m₁ and m₃

F_{13}=\dfrac{Gm_1m_3}{r^2}

by putting the values

F_{13}=\dfrac{Gm_1m_3}{r^2}

F_{13}=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 295\times 63 }{2.05^2}

F₁₃=2.94 x 10⁻⁷ N

The force  between the mass m₂ and m₃

by putting the values

F_{23}=\dfrac{Gm_2m_3}{r^2}

F_{23}=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 595\times 63 }{2.05^2}

F₂₃=5.94 x 10⁻⁷ N

The net force F

F= F₂₃- F₁₃

F=5.94 x 10⁻⁷ N-2.94 x 10⁻⁷ N

F=3 x 10⁻⁷ N

b)

Lest take at distance x from mass m₂ net force is zero.

F_{23}=\dfrac{Gm_2m_3}{x^2}

F_{13}=\dfrac{Gm_1m_3}{(4.1-x)^2}

Form above two equation

\dfrac{Gm_1m_3}{(4.1-x)^2}=\dfrac{Gm_2m_3}{x^2}

\dfrac{m_1}{(4.1-x)^2}=\dfrac{m_2}{x^2}

\dfrac{295}{(4.1-x)^2}=\dfrac{595}{x^2}

x²=2.01(4.1-x)²

x=1.42 (4.1-x)

x=5.82 - 1.42x

x=2.405 m
