Answer:
Explanation:
Given that
Height = h
Radius = R
From energy conservation
At point B
The minimum speed to complete the the circle
So the kinetic energy at point B
Without falling off at the top (point B)
Answer:
B 14.5 m/s to the east
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum.
In fact, if the system is isolated, the total momentum of the system must be conserved.
Here the total momentum before the stuntman reaches the skateboard is:
where
M = 72.0 kg is the mass of the stuntman
v = 15.0 m/s is his initial velocity (to the east)
The total momentum after the stuntmen reaches the skateboard is:
where
m = 2.50 kg is the mass of the skateboard
v' is the final velocity of the stuntman and the skateboard
Since momentum must be conserved, we have
And solvign for v',
And since the sign is the same as v, the direction is the same (to the east).
