If the roller coaster starts from rest at position A. Rank the normal forces felt by the passengers at points A, B and C from largest to smallest.
Solution
Velocity at point A is u = 0
Normal force at point A is N = weight
= mg
Velocity at point B is greater than velocity at point C.
Normal force at B is = weight - centripeatl force at point B
= mg -(mv 2/ r)
Normal force at point C is = Weight + centriptal force at point C
= mg +(mv \' 2 / r)
So, order from largest to smallest is C,A,B
