A 50.0 g toy car is released from rest on a frictionless track with a vertical loop of radius R (loop-the-loop). The initial hei

ght of the car is h = 4.00R.
a. What is the speed of the car at the top of the vertical loop?
b. What is the magnitude of the normal force acting on the car at the top of the vertical loop?

Answer:

the speed of the car at the top of the vertical loop  v_{top} = 2.0 \sqrt{gR \ \ }

the magnitude of the normal force acting on the car at the top of the vertical loop   F_{N} = 1.47 \ \ N

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of energy ;

mgh = mg (2R) + \frac{1}{2}mv^2_{top}\\\\mg ( 4.00 \ R) = mg (2R) + \frac{1}{2}mv^2_{top}\\\\g(4.00 \ R) = g (2R) + \frac{1}{2}v^2 _{top}\\\\v_{top} = \sqrt{2g(4.00R - 2R)}\\\\v_{top} = \sqrt{2g(4.00-2)R

v_{top} = 2.0 \sqrt{gR \ \ }

The  magnitude of the normal force acting on the car at the top of the vertical loop can be calculated as:

F_{N} = \frac{mv^2_{top}}{R} \ - mg\\\\F_{N} = \frac{m(2.0 \sqrt{gR})^2}{R} \ - mg\\\\F_{N} = [(2.0^2-1]mg\\\\F_{N} = [(2.0)^2 -1) (50*10^{-3} \ kg)(9.8 \ m/s^2]\\\\

F_{N} = 1.47 \ \ N

A student lifts a physical science book off the table and above their head. Is there work being done?
DiKsa [7]

Answer: A force must cause a displacement in order for work to be done. A book falls off a table and free falls to the ground. Yes. This is an example of work.

What role does actin and myosin play in the process of muscle contraction?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Muscle contraction thus results from an interaction between the actin and myosin filaments that generates their movement relative to one another. The molecular basis for this interaction is the binding of myosin to actin filaments, allowing myosin to function as a motor that drives filament sliding.
