A roller coaster moving along its track rolls into a circular loop of radius r. In the loop, it is only affected by its initial velocity, gravity, and the shape of the track. Let v denote the instantaneous speed and a denote the magnitude of the instantaneous acceleration of the roller coaster in the loop. Which of the following is true in the loop?
a. The roller coaster is not in uniform circular motion, but we still have a=v^2/r everywhere on the loop
b. The roller coaster is not in uniform circular motion, but the tangential acceleration is so small that we can approximate a by v^2/r everywhere on the loop
c. The roller coaster is in uniform circular motion
d. The roller coaster is not in uniform circular motion, and a=v^2/r is only applicable at the very top and bottom of the loop where the tangential acceleration vanishes
Answer:
c. The roller coaster is in uniform circular motion
Explanation:
Since the loop is circular with radius r, and its instantaneous speed, v is always constant, and also, its centripetal acceleration, a' = v²/r.
Since the angular speed, ω = v/r does not change, the magnitude of its tangential acceleration is zero although there is a change in its direction because the direction of its initial velocity changes. That is a" = rα and α = Δω/Δt since Δω = 0, α = 0 and a" = r(0) = 0
So, there is no tangential acceleration. Since there is no tangential acceleration, our instantaneous acceleration which is the vector sum of our centripetal acceleration and tangential acceleration is a = √(a'² + a"²) = √(a'² + 0²) = √a'² = a' = v²/r
So, a is always v²/r.
Since the instantaneous acceleration is always (a = v²/r) constant, the motion is uniform. So, it is uniform circular motion.
The roller coaster is not in uniform circular motion, and [tex]a = \frac{v^2}{r}[/tex] is only applicable at the very top and bottom of the loop where the tangential acceleration vanishes.
The given parameters;
radius of the circular path, = r instantaneous speed = v instantaneous acceleration = aThe motion tension on the loop at the lowest point in the circular motion is given as;
[tex]T = mg + \frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex]
The motion tension on the loop at the highest point in the circular motion is given as;
[tex]T = \frac{mv^2}{r} - mg[/tex]
This shows that circular motion is affected by;
acceleration due to gravity, gradius of the circular path, rspeed of the motion, vmass of the object, mThus, we can that the roller coaster is not in uniform circular motion, and [tex]a = \frac{v^2}{r}[/tex] is only applicable at the very top and bottom of the loop where the tangential acceleration vanishes.

A fairgrounds ride spins its occupants inside a flying saucer-shaped container. If the horizontal circular path the riders follow has a 9.00 m radius, at how many revolutions per minute will the riders be subjected to a centripetal acceleration whose magnitude is 1.80 times that due to gravity
Answer:
13.37 rev/min
Explanation:
acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s², centripetal acceleration ([tex]a_c[/tex]) = 1.8 * g = 1.8 * 9.8 m/s² = 17.64 m/s².
r = 9 m
Centripetal acceleration ([tex]a_c[/tex]) is given by:
[tex]a_c=\frac{v^2}{r} \\\\v=\sqrt{a_c*r} \\\\v=\sqrt{17.64\ m/s^2*9\ m}\\\\v=12.6\ m/s[/tex]
The velocity (v) is given by:
v = ωr; where ω is the angular velocity
Hence:
ω = v/r = 12.6 / 9
ω = 1.4 rad/s
ω = 2πN
N = ω/2π = 1.4 / 2π
N = 0.2228 rev/s
N = 13.37 rev/min
if the forces on an object are balanced the resultant force is equal to zero true false
Answer:
If the forces are balanced, the resultant force is zero. If the forces on an object are unbalanced, this is what happens: a stationary object starts to move in the direction of the resultant force. a moving object changes speed and/or direction in the direction of the resultant force.

Two motorcycles are traveling due east with different velocities. However, 5.68 seconds later, they have the same velocity. During this 5.68-second interval, motorcycle A has an average acceleration of 3.87 m/s2 due east, while motorcycle B has an average acceleration of 18.2 m/s2 due east. (a) By how much did the speeds differ at the beginning of the 5.68-second interval, and (b) which motorcycle was moving faster?
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
Let a be the initial velocity of motorcycle A and b be the initial velocity of motorcycle B.
After 5.68 seconds, both motorcycle had the same velocity (v), therefore for motorcycle A:
(a - v) / 5.68 = 3.87
a - v = 21.9816
v = a - 21.9816
For motorcycle B:
(b - v) / 5.68 = 18.2
b - v = 103.376
v = b - 103.376
Therefore:
a - 21.9816 = b - 103.376
b - a = -21.9816 + 103.376
b - a = 81.3944
a) The difference between their speeds at the beginning was 81.3944 m/s
b) Since b - a = 81.3944. This means that the initial velocity of motorcycle B is greater than that of motorcycle A by 81.3944 m/s.
Therefore motorcycle B was moving faster

B. The star is approaching you with the speed of 30300 km/s.
C. The star is receding from you with the speed of 3000 km/s.
D. The star is receding from you with the speed of 30300 km/s.
Answer:
C. The star is receding from you with the speed of 3000 km/s
Explanation:
To get this answer we use the doppler effect equation . The formula for a receding emissor is given in the attachment.
We solve for V
V = 3x10⁶m/s
V = 3000km/s
We have the wavelength to be shifting towards red. Therefore we conclude that it is receding. We say the star is receding with speed of 3000km/s towards you.

A constant electric field of 5.00 N/C points along the positive x-direction. An electron, initially at rest, moves a distance of 2.00 m in this space. How fast is the electron moving after its 2.00 m journey
Answer:
1.875 x 10⁶ m /s .
Explanation:
Force on electron = E e where E is electric field and e is charge on electron
acceleration generated = Ee / m where m is mass of the electron .
Putting the values
acceleration generated = 5 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ / 9.1 x 10⁻³¹
= .879 x 10¹² m /s²
v² = u² + 2 as , initial velocity u = 0 , displacement s = 2 m

For this assignment, you should mathematically solve and record a video testing your solution for the following prompt: Two rolls of toilet paper, of equal mass and radius, are dropped from different heights so that they hit the ground at the same time. One roll of toilet paper is dropped normally while the other is dropped while a person holds onto a sheet of toilet paper such that the roll unravels as it descends. Determine the ratio of heights h1/h2, where h1 represents the height of the toilet paper dropped normally and h2 represents the height of the toilet paper that unravels, so that both rolls hit the ground at the same time.
Answer:
h1/h2 = [tex]\frac{2R^2}{3R^2 + h^2}[/tex]
Explanation:
Using two rolls of tissue paper : One roll dropped normally while the other drops as some holds onto a sheet of the toilet paper ( I.e. the tissue paper drops rotating about its axis )
Determine the ratio of heights h1/h2
mass of tissues = same
radius of tissues = same
h1 = height of tissue 1
h2 = height of tissue 2
For the first tissue ( Tissue that dropped manually )
potential energy = kinetic energy
mgh = 1/2 mv^2
therefore the final velocity ( v^2 ) = 2gH ----- ( 1 )
second tissue ( Tissue that dropped while rotating )
gh = [tex]\frac{v^2}{u}[/tex] ( 3 + [tex]\frac{u^2}{R^2}[/tex] ) ------ ( 2 )
To determine the ratio of heights we will equate equations 1 and 2
hence :
gh = [tex]\frac{2gH}{u}[/tex] ( 3 + [tex]\frac{u^2}{R^2}[/tex] )
∴ h1/h2 = [tex]\frac{2R^2}{3R^2 + h^2}[/tex]

A long, straight wire has a uniform constant charge with linear charge density, - 3.60 nC/m. The wire is surrounded by a long nonconducting, thin-walled cylindrical shell that is charged on its outside surface, such that the electric field outside the shell is zero. The shell has a radius of 1.50 cm.
Required:
What uniform area charge density rho is needed on the shell for the electric field to be zero outside the shell?
Answer:
Uniform area charge density rho is needed is 3.82*10^-8 C.m^-2
Explanation:
See the attached files.
To find the rho, I used Gauss law for cylindrical shell which is equation 1 and Gauss law for the rod which is equation 4.
Note that in equation 4, Lamda is the charge per length while L is the length if the rod. Also R is the radius of the shell.
The final answer is 3.82*10^-8 C.m^-2 which is the uniform area charge density rho is needed.

A 20 kg box has an initial velocity of 2 m/s starting at the bottom of a 30-degree inclined plane. A person pushes on the box directly up the frictionless inclined plane so that it travels up the inclined plane at a constant velocity of 2 m/s. Calculate the how much is done by the person after 5 seconds have past.
Answer:
Explanation:
The box is moving with constant velocity so acceleration of box is zero . That means net force on the box is zero .
The weight component acting on box parallel to incline plane
= mg sin 30⁰ = 20 x 9.8 x sin 30 = 98 N
This force is acting down the plane , hence to make the net force zero acting on box , force exerted by person will also be 98 N up the incline .
Force exerted by person = 98 N
distance travelled in 5 s
= velocity x time
= 2 x 5 = 10 m
Work done by person
= 98 x 10
= 980 J .
The equation r(t)= (3t+9)i+(sqrt(2)t)j+(t^2)k is the position of a particle in space at time t. Find the angle between the velocity and acceleration vectors at time t=0. What is the angle?
Answer:
θ = 90º
Explanation:
The velocity is given by
v = [tex]\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]
calculate
v = 3 i ^ + √2 j ^ + 2t k ^
acceleration is defined by
a = dv / dt
a = 2 k ^
one way to find the angle is with the dot product
v. a = | v | | a | cos θ
cos θ= v.a / | v | | a |
Let's look for the value of each term
v. a = 4 t
| v | = [tex]\sqrt{3^2 + 2 + (2t)^2 }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{ 11 + 4t^2}[/tex]
| a | = 2
they ask us for the angle for time t = 0
v. a = 0
| v | = √11 = 3.317
we substitute
cos θ = 0 /√11
cos θ = 0
therefore the angles must be θ = 90º
