A) 14 m/s and 15 m/s
B) 15 m/s and 16 m/s
C) 16 m/s and 17 m/s
D) 13 m/s and 14 m/s
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Balancing the forces, we get |
\[Mg-N=M\frac{{{v}^{2}}}{R}\] |
For weightlessness, \[N=0\] |
\[\therefore \] \[\frac{M{{v}^{2}}}{R}=Mg\] |
where R is the radius of curvature and v is the speed of car. |
Therefore, \[v=\sqrt{Rg}\] |
Putting the values, \[R=20\text{ }m,\,\,g=10.0\text{ }m/{{s}^{2}}\] |
So, \[v=\sqrt{20\times 10.0}=14.14\,m\text{/}{{s}^{2}}\] |
Thus, the speed of the car at the top of the hill is between 14 m/s and 15 m/s. |
Note: The roller coaster is a popular amusement ride developed for amusement parks and modern theme parks. |
