A section of uniform pipe is bent into an upright U shape and partially filled with water, which can then oscillate back and for
th in simple harmonic motion. The inner radius of the pipe is r = 0.011 m. The radius of curvature of the curved part of the U is R = 0.15 m. When the water is not oscillating, the depth of the water in the straight sections is d = 0.21 m.
Write an expression for the mass of water in the tube, in terms of the defined quantities and the density of water, rho. Use the approximation r«R.

The kinetic energy halfway the hill is
Explanation:
If there are no friction forces acting on the cart, we can apply the law of conservation of energy: the mechanical energy of the cart (which is the sum of potential energy + kinetic energy) must be conserved. So we can write:
where
is the initial potential energy, at point A, with
m = 980 kg (mass of the cart)
(acceleration of gravity)
(height at point A)
is the initial kinetic energy, at point A
, with
(velocity at point A)
is the final potential energy, at point B, where
(height at point B)
is the final kinetic energy, at point B, where
is the velocity at point B
Here we are interested in finding , so by re-arranging the equation and substituting we find:
