f) The roller coaster should start from a height of 100 m
Explanation:
a)
See the free-body diagram in attachment. There are only two forces acting on the roller coaster at the top of the loop:
- The weight of the roller coaster, acting downward, indicated by
(where m is the mass of the roller coaster and g is the acceleration of gravity)
- The normal reaction exerted by the track on the roller coaster, acting downward, and indicated with N
The two forces are represented in the diagram as two downward arrows (the length is not proportional to their magnitude, in this case)
b)
Since there are only two forces acting on the roller coaster at the top of the loop, and both forces are acting downward, then we can write the vertical net force as follows (we take downward as positive direction):
where
mg is the weight
N is the normal reaction
Since the roller coaster is in circular motion, this net force must be equal to the centripetal force, therefore
where v is the speed of the car at the top of the loop and r is the radius of the loop.
c)
For this part of the problem, we start from the equation written in part b)
where the term on the left represents the centripetal force, and the terms on the right are the weight and the normal reaction.
We now re-arrange the equation making v (the speed) as the subject:
However, the velocity at which the roller coaster will fall is the velocity at which the normal reaction becomes zero (the roller coaster loses contact with the track), so when
N = 0
And as a result, the minimum velocity of the cart is
d)
In this part, we are told that the radius of the loop is
r = 30 m
And the mass of the cart is
m = 50 kg
Moreover, the acceleration of gravity is
We said that the minimum velocity that the cart must have in order not to fall at the top is
And substituting, we find
e)
According to the law of conservation of energy, the initial gravitational energy of the roller coaster at the starting point must be equal to the sum of the kinetic energy + gravitational potential energy at the top of the loop, therefore:
where
h is the initial height at the starting point
(2r) is the height of the roller coaster at the top of the loop
We can re-arrange the equation making h the subject,
And substituting the minimum speed of the cart,
this becomes
And since r = 30 m, we find
f)
In this case, 10% of the initial energy is lost during the motion of the roller coaster. We can rewrite the equation of the previous part as
Because only 90% (0.90) of the initial energy is converted into useful energy (kinetic+potential) when the cart reaches the top of the loop.
Re-arranging the equation, this time we get
Again, by substituting , we get
And therefore, the new initial height must be

Answer:
C and D
Explanation:
Charge on right = +0.001 C
Charge on left = 1000 C
Charge held in between = -1C
Ratio between right and left charge:
Which shows charge on left exerts 1,000,000 times more force then charge on right
Charge on left is 1000 times greater in magnitude than charge held between and charge held between is 1000 times greater in magnitude than charge on right. So the magnitude of the force on the charge you are holding would be the same if it were +1 C instead of −1 C.
