Since energy is lost in the roller coaster due to friction, the hill should little lower than the starting height since some of the kinetic energy at the bottom of the first hill is lost due to friction so it will not have as much potential energy at the top of the next hill.
A roller coaster is a good way to demonstrate the principle of conservation of energy. Recall that energy is neither created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another.
In a roller coaster, all the heights are not the same because energy is lost along the line. Therefore, the students must bear in mind that the hill should be at least a little lower than the starting height because some of the kinetic energy at the bottom of the first hill will be converted to other types of energy due to friction so it will not have as much potential energy at the top of the next hill.

No answer is possible until we know the number that belongs after the words "... angular speed of ".
Given that,
Mass of trackler, m₁ = 100 kg
Speed of trackler, u₁ = 2.6 m/s
Mass of halfback, m₂ = 92 kg
Speed of halfback, u₂ = -5 m/s (direction is opposite)
To find,
Mutual speed immediately after the collision.
Solution,
The momentum of the system remains conserved in this case. Let v is the mutual speed after the collision. Using conservation of momentum as :
So, the mutual speed immediately after the collision is 1.04 m/s but in opposite direction.
