Explain. 27) 5 Answer Key Testname: UNTITLED1 1) A 2) A 3) C 4) B 5) A 6) B 7) C 8) A 9) B 10) C 11) C 12) A 13) A 14) B 15) B 16) B 17) C 18) C 19) C 20) D 21) C 22) C 23) A 24) A 25) If the velocity of the roller coaster car is sufficiently large at the top of the loop, the person (and car) will remain on the track. For lower speeds, the normal force on the person goes to 0 before she reaches the top, meaning that she comes out of the seat. mV2 (This follows from N = r - mg.) 26) The car is making a turn, but the person in the car is not part of the car. According to Newtonʹs First Law, you will move in a straight line until acted on by an outside force - thus, you move in a straight line while the car turns (at least until you run into the door. At this time, the car exerts a force on you, causing your direction of motion to change.). 27) The frictional force between the road and the tires required to decelerate the car acts below the center of mass of the car. For a car traveling to the left, this translates into a counterclockwise torque. The normal forces on the front and back tires are redistributed to produce a clockwise torque. This requires an increase in the normal force at the front and a decrease in the normal force at the back. As a result, the car dips down at the front. 6
