No because different Surfaces have different friction and that causes a Speed difference on each surface

If there is no friction, the roller coaster would keep moving forever but a constant velocity. The only way it would accelerate is if there was a force continually pushing on it.

How far away is Earth from the Sun?

Snowcat [4.5K]

d. 93 billion miles

Earth, being the third planet from the sun is unique in the universe because it is currently the only planet known to support life. Earth's distance from the sun is really one of the key reasons why it is has widespread life.Earth occupies what scientists sometimes call the Goldilocks zone. Its distance from the sun means its neither too hot nor too cold to support liquid water. Water is thought to be a key ingredient for life. The energy from the sun in just the right intensity and the availability of water on the earth make it possible for life to thrive on earth. Plants use both these resources for photosynthesis and make nutrients that are available to support the life of animals on the earth.

Answer:

In m/s^2:

a=11.3778 m/s^2

In units of g:

a=1.161 g

Explanation:

Since the racing greyhounds are capable of rounding corners at very high speed so we are going use the following formula of acceleration for circular paths.

$a=\frac{v^2}{r}$
