How to find g (acceleration due to gravity)
<h3>Solution:</h3>We know,
Acceleration due to gravity (g)
where, G = Gravitational constant
M = Mass of the earth
R = Radius of the earth
Putting these values of G, M and R in the above formula, we get
So, the value of acceleration due to gravity is

Answer:
a)Velocity of car =v=16 m/s
b)Force against the track at point B=1.15*N
Explanation:
Given mass of roller coaster=m=350 kg
Position of A=Ha=25 m
Position of B=Hb=12 m
Net potential energy=mg(ha-hb)
Net potential energy=(350)(9.80)(25-12)
Net potential energy=44590 J
Using energy conservation
net kinetic energy=net potential energy
(1/2)mv^2=mg(ha-hb)
m=350
velocity=v=16 m/s
b)There two force acting,centripetal force upward and gravity downward.
Thus net force acting will be
Net force=(mv^2/r)-mg
Net force=14933.33-3430
Net force=1.15* N
