Regardless of where the cars are in the loop, centripetal force is always directed toward the center of rotation. So even if a car you're riding in is at the top of a loop, upside-down, you will feel pressed into your seat.

A thin, 100 g disk with a diameter of 8.0 cm rotates about an axis through its center with 0.15 J of kinetic energy. What is the
butalik [34]

Answer:

v=2.45 m/s

Explanation:

The rotational kinetic energy is calculated with:

K=\frac{I\omega^2}{2}

The moment of inertia of a disk is:

I=\frac{mr^2}{2}

A point on the rim of a disk will have a speed of:

v=r\omega

Putting all together:

v=r\sqrt{\frac{2K}{I}}=r\sqrt{\frac{2(2K)}{mr^2}}=2\sqrt{\frac{K}{m}}

Which for our values is:

v=2\sqrt{\frac{0.15J}{0.1Kg}}=2.45m/s
