PLEASE SHOW WORK! A roller coaster starts from rest at a height h at the left...
A roller-coaster car shown in the figure on the right is released from rest from a height h and then moves freely with negligible friction. The roller-coaster track includes a circular loop of radius R in a vertical plane. a. First suppose the car barely makes it around the loop; at the top of the loop, the riders are upside down and feel weightless. Find the required height h of the release point above the bottom of the loop in...
A roller coaster track is set up so that the coaster starts from
rest, falls, and proceeds to go through a loop according to the
picture. Ignore friction. The photogates can be used to determine
the velocity of the cart.
Using energy conservation, find the minimum height the cart must
start from in order to complete the loop.
Need some help working out these equation. Any help is really
appreciated!!

Problem 1: Looping. The looping of a roller coaster has the radius R. The roller coaster starts at rest in height H over the deepest point of the looping (as shown in the figure). Neglect friction and consider the roller coaster as a mass point of mass m. Q.1) Express the total energy of the body. The reference point for the potential energy is at the center of the loop. Q.2) Find the speed of the body at the top...
A roller coaster car of mass 800 kg when released from rest at
point A (height h above the ground) slides along the track and
inside the loop of radius 16.0 m. The car never loses contact with
the track.
A) Draw below a free body diagram for the car the car at the top
of the loop.
B) If the normal force acting on the car at the top is 1500 N,
what is the speed of the car...

Consider the roller coaster pictured. The coaster car (m= 1000 kg) starts from rest at (1) the top of the first hill at height H = 40 m. It then (2) drops, (3) goes over the second hill assume semicircular) of height L, and (4) around the loop of radius R, all frictionless. After finishing the loop (5), it encounteres frictional resistance u = 1 on the track at and (6) hits an armadillo (mA = 5 kg) at distance...

Let's design a roller coaster. It should
consist of a long ramp leading into a loop. The loop should have a
radius r of 7.4 m. The cars have a mass M of 348 kg. Assuming that
friction can be neglected here, what should be the minimum height h
of the ramp (in m) with respect to the bottom of the loop so that
the cars don't fall off the track at the top of the loop?
PLEASE ANSWER CORRECTLY THE CORRECT ANSWER IS 46
A roller coaster cart starts at the top of a quarter circular
hill (no friction) of some radius at a speed of 11.8
m/s. At the bottom of the hill it encounters a
horizontal surface with friction and the coefficient of kinetic
friction is 0.55. It travels over that horizontal surface for 8
meters and encounters a frictionless loop with a radius of 23
meters. If it is to just barely make...
A roller-coaster car (mass = 988 kg including passengers) is about to roll down a track. The diameter of the circular loop is 21.5 m and the car starts out from rest 36.2 m above the lowest point of the track. Ignore friction and air resistance. X is the how high the car is= 36.2 m Y is the diameter of the loop= 21.5 m. What is the force exerted on the car by the track at the top of...
