Aroller-coaster car speeds down a hill past point a and then rolls up a hill past point b, as shown below. a. the car has a speed of 20.0 m/s at point a. if the track exerts a normal force on the car of 2.06 × 104 n at this point, what is the mass of the car? (be sure to account for gravitational force.) b. what is the maximum speed the car can have at point b for the gravitational force to hold it on the track?

Solution:

part A)
we are at point A, where the velocity of the car is . There are two forces acting on the car:
- its weight: , where m is the mass of the car and g is the gravitational acceleration
- the normal force exerted by the track on the car: 

The car is in circular motion, so the resultant of these 2 forces is equal to the centripetal force:

If we re-arrange the equation and we plug the numbers into it, we can find m, the mass of the car:


Part B)
At point B, the equation of motion becomes

where we changed the signs of mg and N, since now mg points toward the center of the circular trajectory. 
The maximum speed that the car can achieve without flying off the track is the velocity at which the normal force exerted by the track is zero: N=0, so that the term on the left is maximum. If we put N=0, we find:

from which we find the velocity of the car:

The center is basically the heart of it
