Answer:
The kinetic energy is 20,000\ J
Step-by-step explanation:
The kinetic energy of a body is defined as:
Where <em>m</em> is the mass of the roller coaster car
<em>s</em> is the speed and <em>k</em> is the kinetic energy
We know that
Then the kinetic energy of the roller coaster car is:
Answer:
Pythagorean theorem, eh?
Step-by-step explanation:
The way to do this is use the radius-tangent angle theorem thing...
It states that, a radius that intersects a point of tangency(I think that's what it's called) is perpendicular to the tangent. Thus, CW is perpendicular to OW!
Thus, it forms a right triangle, where we can use Pythagorean Theorem!
If you don't know what it is, check the internet! It's pretty simple.
So, there you go! Hope this helps!
