In the diagram below a car starts from rest at point A which is 37.5 m above point C. It then slides down the hill, travels around the loop. When the car is at point B, it is going the minimum possible speed it could be going without falling. After completing the loop, it compresses a 294,000 N/m spring 6.9 m. Assume there's no friction present. A.) Determine the loop's radius. B.) Determine the car's mass.

chris has a mass of 80.0kg. He swings on a 5.00m long rope. If the rope can withstand a maximum tension of 1.20 x 10^3. what is the maximum speed chris can achieve without the rope breaking at the bottom of his swing? Show all your calculations and rearrange the formula for full marks
i need help to find the answer and the formula and not the answer from chegg used please A 2.0-kg mass is attached to a vertical spring. The mass is held in place with the spring relaxed, and then released from rest. As the mass falls, it stretches the spring. If the spring has a force constant of 100 N/m, how fast is the mass moving after is has descended 3.0 cm? Ignore air resistance. Type in your numeric answer, and then explain how you determined it.
Chris jumps off a bridge with a bungee cord (a heavy stretchable cord) tied around his ankle, as shown in the figure below. He falls for 15 m before the bungee cord begins to stretch. Chris’s mass is 75 kg. If we neglect air resistance and Chris drops another 43 m before coming to a stop, find the spring constant ? of the bungee cord. Ignore the mass of the cord and treat Chris as a particle. please show your work, including diagrams, algebraic equations, and enough written explanations that somebody who is not familiar with the problem could understand what you are doing.
Use the diagram to answer the questions A simple pendulum is suspended from the ceiling by means of a string of length 1.92 m. Assume that there is no friction or air resistance. Suppose you were to release the pendulum from rest, starting from an angle of 44.7 degrees with respect to the vertical, as shown. What will be the speed of the pendulum at the instant it swings through its lowest point (that is, when it s momentarily hanging vertically)? a. 3.30 m/s b. 5.17 m/s c. 6.14 m/s d. 1.98 m/s OK, once again we have a pendulum, this time of length 1.18 m, which you release from rest at an angle of 32.3 degrees to the vertical.
