A roller coaster at the Six FlagsGreat America amusement parkin Gurnee, Illinois, incorporatessome clever design technologyand some basic physics. Each verticalloop, instead of being circular,is shaped like a teardrop(Fig. P6.13). The cars ride onthe inside of the loop at the top,and the speeds are fast enoughto ensure the cars remain on thetrack. The biggest loop is 40.0 mhigh. Suppose the speed at thetop of the loop is 13.0 m/s andthe corresponding centripetalacceleration of the riders is 2g. (a) What is the radius of thearc of the teardrop at the top? (b) If the total mass of a carplus the riders is M, what force does the rail exert on the carat the top? (c) Suppose the roller coaster had a circular loopof radius 20.0 m. If the cars have the same speed, 13.0 m/sat the top, what is the centripetal acceleration of the ridersat the top? (d) Comment on the normal force at the top inthe situation described in part (c) and on the advantages ofhaving teardrop-shaped loops.

The figure shows a ball with mass m = 2.0 kg attached to the end of a thin rod with length L = 0.79 m and negligible mass. The other end of the rod is pivoted so that the ball can move in a vertical circle. (a) What initial speed must be given the ball so that it reaches the vertically upward position with zero speed? What then is its speed at (b) the lowest point and (c) the point on the right at which the ball is level with the initial point? (d) If the ball's mass were doubled, what would the answer to (a) be?
True or False? "In the circular motion, there is a kinetic energy but the work due to the centripetal force is zero" True False
Given that centripetal acceleration is: a c = v 2 r potential energy due to height is: P E h = m * g * h and kinetic energy is: K E = 1 2 m v 2 what is the correct equation for the maximum safe height of a loop (hloop) relative to the height of the hill (hhill) that came before it? Naturally, this is in the context of a roller coaster.
What is the minimum speed a 805 kg roller coaster needs to have at the top of a 6 m radius vertical loop?
