Hello There!

Let's first talk about "What Is Friction"

Friction is a force that pulls when two object touch each-other. Friction happens because the molecules on one surface interlock with the molecules on another surface.

Now, let's get back to our original question "What Effect Does Friction Have On A Roller Coaster"

On a roller coaster, friction is a force that opposes motion and significantly slows the cars as they move on the track.

A self-driving car traveling along a straight section of road starts from rest, accelerating at 2.00 m/s2 until it reaches a spe

Rasek [7]

Answer:

$56.5\ \text{s}$

$21.13\ \text{m/s}$

Explanation:

v = Final velocity

u = Initial velocity

a = Acceleration

t = Time

s = Displacement

Here the kinematic equations of motion are used

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{25-0}{2}\\\Rightarrow t=12.5\ \text{s}$

Time the car is at constant velocity is 39 s

Time the car is decelerating is 5 s

Total time the car is in motion is $12.5+39+5=56.5\ \text{s}$

Distance traveled

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{25^2-0}{2\times 2}\\\Rightarrow s=156.25\ \text{m}$

$s=vt\\\Rightarrow s=25\times 39\\\Rightarrow s=975\ \text{m}$

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{0-25}{5}\\\Rightarrow a=-5\ \text{m/s}^2$

$s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{0-25^2}{2\times -5}\\\Rightarrow s=62.5\ \text{m}$

The total displacement of the car is $156.25+975+62.5=1193.75\ \text{m}$

Average velocity is given by

$\dfrac{\text{Total displacement}}{\text{Total time}}=\dfrac{1193.75}{56.5}=21.13\ \text{m/s}$

The average velocity of the car is $21.13\ \text{m/s}$ .
