a rollar coaster designer wants to design a track with a vertical loop having 60ft radius. what should the minimum speed of the cars at the top point inside the track be so that nobody falls down?

A certain roller coaster design uses a vertical loop of radius 7.248 m. Assuming that the roller coaster remains on the track, what is the minimum speed of a car at the top of the loop? (HINT: In general, the centripetal force is the vector sum of the car's weight w and the normal force N exerted by the tracks. The value of N varies with the speed. The minimum value of N is zero, which occurs when the roller...
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?
A student with mass 58.0 kg rides on a roller coaster with a vertical loop. At the top of the loop the track has a radius of 19.7 m and the roller coaster moves at speed of 21.9 m/s at the top. Determine the normal force from the seat on the student at the top of the loop. Give your answer in newtons (N) and with 3 significant figures.
4. A roller-coaster with a loop-the-loop is designed so that the cars are a very strong spring that is compressed by the cars and then the cars are rele from rest for the launch. The track is frictionless except for a 12m long rough section before the loop. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the cars and the track in the rough section are 0.8 and 0.12, respectively. The loop has a radius of curvature of 18m. What...
At the top of a looped section of roller coaster track, the car and rider are completely upside down. What information is necessary to calculate the minimum speed of the car that will prevent a rider from falling out of it? Assume the rider is not strapped into the car. A.) the radius of the loop, the mass of the rider. and the mass of the car b. the mass of the rider and the width of the track c....
12. ** A vertical loop in a roller coaster has a radius of curvature of 20 met would riders need to be strapped in to prevent folli what speed at the top of the loop would riders need to be strapped out? (Note for future roller coaster engineers: it's probably still a safety straps or restraints even above this speed.) it's probably still a good idea to have
In order for the mass traveling around a circular roller coaster loop to stay on the track at the top of the loop, what must the mass' minimum speed be at the top of the 10 m radius loop?
You are designing a new roller-coaster. The main feature of this particular design is to be a vertical circular loop-the-loop where riders will feel like they are being squished into their seats even when they are in fact upside-down (at the top of the loop). The coaster start at rest a height of 80m above the ground, speeds up as it descends to ground level, and then enters the loop which has a radius of 20m. Suppose a rider is...
A roller coaster is traveling upside down in a vertical loop of diameter 25m. What is its minimum speed if the riders are not about to fall out of their seats at the highest point in the loop? *Please be careful with significant figures.
A roller coaster car travels around a vertical loop. At the top of the loop, where it is upside down, it is moving at a speed of 10 m/s. Given that the loop has a radius of 8.0 m, a) What is the value of the car’s centripetal acceleration at that instant in time? b) A 55 kg passenger is in the car. Draw a free‐body diagram showing all the forces acting on the passenger. c) What is the magnitude...
