The Outlaw Run roller coaster in Branson, Missouri, features a track that is inclined at 84 ∘ below the horizontal and that span

s a 49.4-m (162 ft) change in height.
a)If the coefficient of friction for the roller coaster is μk = 0.28, what is the magnitude of the friction force on a 1600-kg coaster train?
b)How much work is done by friction during the time the coaster train travels along the incline?
c)What is the speed of the coaster train at the bottom of the incline, assuming it started from rest at the top?

Answer:

Explanation:

a)

Ff = μmgcosθ

Ff = 0.28(1600)(9.8)cos(-84)

Ff = 458.9217...

Ff = 460 N

b)  ignoring the curves required at top and bottom which change the friction force significantly, especially at the bottom where centripetal acceleration will greatly increase normal forces and thus friction force.

W = Ffd

W = 458.9217(-49.4/sin(-84)

W = 22,795.6119...

W = 23 kJ

c) same assumptions as part b

The change in potential energy minus the work of friction will be kinetic energy.

KE = PE - W

½mv² = mgh - (μmgcosθ)d

v² = 2(gh - (μgcosθ)(h/sinθ))

v = √(2gh(1 - μcotθ))

v = √(2(9.8)(49.4)(1 - 0.28cot84))

v = 30.6552...

v = 31 m/s

sveta [45]

Acceleration is the change of velocity, and velocity is the change of distance. The opposite of finding change, or differentiation, is integration.

Acceleration = 1.3 m/s²

Velocity: ∫ 1.3 dx = 1.3x + c m/s

Distance: ∫ 1.3x dx = 1.3x²/2 + c m

Distance run: 1.3*3²/2 = 5.85 m

A 35.8 kg box initially at rest is pushed 2.38 m along a rough, horizontal floor with a constant applied horizontal force of 108
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The work done by the applied force is 259.22 J.

Explanation:

The work done by the applied force is given by:

W = F*d

Where:

F: is the applied horizontal force = 108.915 N

d: is the distance = 2.38 m  

Hence, the work is:

W = F*d = 108.915 N*2.38 m = 259.22 J

Therefore, the work done by the applied force is 259.22 J.

I hope it helps you!

8. At what position does the mass have the greatest acceleration?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Option (e)

Explanation:

If a mass attached to a spring is stretched and released, it follows a simple harmonic motion.

In simple harmonic motion, velocity of the mass will be maximum, kinetic energy is maximum and acceleration is 0 at equilibrium position (at 0 position).

At position +A, mass will have the minimum kinetic energy, zero velocity and maximum acceleration.

Therefore, Option (e) will be the answer.
