Question

Sarah and her friends went to enchanted kingdom to try a newly opened roller coaster with an empty cart of mass 120 kg. A part of the ride is a vertical loop with radius 12 meters. At the bottom of the loop, the cart has a velocity of 25 m/s, while 8 m/s at the top. As the cart rolls from bottom to top, what is the work done by friction?

You are testing a new amusement park roller coaster with an empty car of mass 120 kg. One part of the track is a vertical loop with radius 12.0 m. At the bottom of the loop (point $A$) the car has speed 25.0 m/s, and at the top of the loop (point $B$) it has speed 8.0 m/s. As the car rolls from point $A$ to point $B$, how much work is done by friction?

You are testing a new amusement park roller coaster with an empty car of mass 120 $\mathrm{kg}$ . One part of the track is a vertical loop with radius 12.0 $\mathrm{m}$ . At the bottom of the loop (point $A )$ the car has speed $25.0 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s},$ and at the top of the loop (point $B )$ it has speed 8.0 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} .$ As the car rolls from point $A$ to point $B$ , how much work is done by friction?

You are testing a new amusement park roller coaster with an empty car of mass 120 kg. One part of the track is a vertical loop with radius 12.0 m. At the bottom of the loop (point A) the car has speed 25.0 m>s, and at the top of the loop (point B) it has speed 8.0 m>s. As the car rolls from point A to point B, how much work is done by friction?

00:01 Problem 7 .11, we have a roller coaster that's under test with a vertical loop in it.
00:11 The mass of the car is 120 kilograms when it's empty.
00:25 So we have this loop, its radius is 12.
00:29 And we're told that at the bottom of the loop, as it enters, the speed is 25 meters per second.
00:35 And then at the top, its speed is 8 meters per second...
