Question
The path of a roller coaster is given by the vector function T (t) = (x(t), y(t), z(t)). Which of the
following descriptions matches the velocity and acceleration functions i(t) =7'(t) and
a(t) ="(t) at the moment when the car reaches the top of a loop-the-loop (as pictured below)?
O u(t) is horizontal pointing in the opposite direction of travel
a(t) points toward the center of the loop
O u(t) is horizontal pointing in the direction of travel
a(t) points toward the center of the loop
O (t) is horizontal pointing in the opposite direction of travel
a(t) points away from the center of the loop
O(t) is horizontal pointing in the direction of travel
a(t) points away from the center of the loop
