Answer: 
Explanation:
According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:
Where:
is the module of the force exerted between both bodies
is the universal gravitation constant.
and
are the masses of both bodies.
is the distance between both bodies
In this case we have two situations:
1) Two bags with masses
and
mutually exerting a gravitational attraction
on each other:
(1)
(2)
(3)
2) Two bags with masses
and
mutually exerting a gravitational attraction
on each other (assuming the distance between both bags is the same as situation 1):
(4)
(5)
(6)
Now, if we isolate
from (3):
(7)
Substituting
found in (7) in (6):
(8)
(9)
Simplifying, we finally get the expression for
in terms of
:
You must observe the object twice.
-- Look at it the first time, and make a mark where it is.
-- After some time has passed, look at the object again, and
make another mark at the place where it is.
-- At your convenience, take out your ruler, and measure the
distance between the two marks.
What you'll have is the object's "displacement" during that period
of time ... the distance between the start-point and end-point.
Technically, you won't know the actual distance it has traveled
during that time, because you don't know the route it took.
Then report it and it might be taken down
Wow ! This is not simple. At first, it looks like there's not enough information, because we don't know the mass of the cars. But I"m pretty sure it turns out that we don't need to know it.
At the top of the first hill, the car's potential energy is
PE = (mass) x (gravity) x (height) .
At the bottom, the car's kinetic energy is
KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed²) .
You said that the car's speed is 70 m/s at the bottom of the hill,
and you also said that 10% of the energy will be lost on the way
down. So now, here comes the big jump. Put a comment under
my answer if you don't see where I got this equation:
KE = 0.9 PE
(1/2) (mass) (70 m/s)² = (0.9) (mass) (gravity) (height)
Divide each side by (mass):
(0.5) (4900 m²/s²) = (0.9) (9.8 m/s²) (height)
(There goes the mass. As long as the whole thing is 90% efficient,
the solution will be the same for any number of cars, loaded with
any number of passengers.)
Divide each side by (0.9):
(0.5/0.9) (4900 m²/s²) = (9.8 m/s²) (height)
Divide each side by (9.8 m/s²):
Height = (5/9)(4900 m²/s²) / (9.8 m/s²)
= (5 x 4900 m²/s²) / (9 x 9.8 m/s²)
= (24,500 / 88.2) (m²/s²) / (m/s²)
= 277-7/9 meters
(about 911 feet)
