A mass m = 75 kg slides on a frictionless track that has a drop, followed by a loop-the-loop with radius R = 19.2 m and finally

a flat straight section at the same height as the center of the loop (19.2 m off the ground). Since the mass would not make it around the loop if released from the height of the top of the loop (do you know why?) it must be released above the top of the loop-the-loop height. (Assume the mass never leaves the smooth track at any point on its path.)

Answer:

The velocity is 19.39 m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass, m = 75 kg

Radius, R = 19.2 m

Now,

When the mass is at the top position in the loop, then the necessary centrifugal force is to keep the mass on the path is provided by the gravitational force acting downwards.

F_{C} = F_{G}

\frac{mv^{2}}{R} = mg

where

v = velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity

v = \sqrt{2gR} = \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 19.2} = 19.39\ m/s

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The total amount of energy that would have been released if the asteroid hit earth = The kinetic energy of the asteroid = 1.29 × 10¹⁵ J = 1.29 PetaJoules = 1.29 PJ

1 PJ = 10¹⁵ J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = mv²/2

velocity of the asteroid is given as 7.8 km/s = 7800 m/s

To obtain the mass, we get it from the specific gravity and diameter information given.

Density = specific gravity × 1000 = 3 × 1000 = 3000 kg/m³

But density = mass/volume

So, mass = density × volume.

Taking the informed assumption that the asteroid is a sphere,

Volume = 4πr³/3

Diameter = 30 m, r = D/2 = 15 m

Volume = 4π(15)³/3 = 14137.2 m³

Mass of the asteroid = density × volume = 3000 × 14137.2 = 42411501 kg = 4.24 × 10⁷ kg

Kinetic energy of the asteroid = mv²/2 = (4.24 × 10⁷)(7800²)/2 = 1.29 × 10¹⁵ J
