Answer:
F = 2985.125 N
Explanation:
Given that,
The radius of curvature of the roller coaster, r = 8 m
Speed of Micheal, v = 17 m/s
Mass of body, m = 65 kg We need to find the net force acting on Micheal. Net force act the bottom of the circle is given by :
So, the net force is 2985.125 N.
Gravitational potential energy is an object that possesses because of its position in a gravitational field
Answer:
B) 4500 Pa
Explanation:
As pressure is force per unit area,
P = F/A
It stands to reason that the smallest pressure for a given force is when it is shared by the largest area.
The possible areas are
0.30(0.40) = 0.12 m²
0.30(0.50) = 0.15 m²
0.40(0.50) = 0.20 m²
The pressure when the face with the largest area (0.20 m²) is down is
P = 900 / 0.20 = 4500 N/m² or 4500 Pa
the other possible pressures would be
900/0.15 = 6000 Pa
900/0.12 = 7500 Pa
which are both larger than our solution.
