Answer:
a) A:170572.5 J
C: 55794.9J
b) 170572.5 J
c) 41.4413265306m
d) 2.7455874717m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Kinetic energy = 0.5*m*v²
KE at A = 0.5*420*28.5² = 170572.5 J
KE at C = 0.5*420*16.3² = 55794.9 J
b) Mechanical energy is the total kinetic energy plus potential energy at a point on the system. There is no potential energy at A.
ANSWER: 170572.5 J
c) v²=u²+2as
28.5²=2(9.8)s
812.25/19.6=s
s=41.4413265306m
d) h=height from part c, r=radius of loop
v²=u²+2as
v²=gr or a=v²/r
Ei=Ef
mgh=0.5mv²+mg(2r)
gh=0.5v²+2gr
h=0.5r+2r
h=5/2r
r=2/5h=(2/5)(41.4413265306)=16.5765306122
F=ma
mg=m(v²/r)
g=v²/r
v²=(9.8)(16.5765306122)
v=√162.45
=12.7455874717m/s
