Extra Credit: Fill in the energy chart using the picture and the clues below. Use g = 10 m/s². (10 points)
Keep in mind, the Total energy is equal to the same thing for all columns and the heat energy will always increase
Use g = 10 m/s^2
The mass of the roller coaster is 1,000 kg.
There is 500,000 J of braking HE at point 'J’ which is the end of the ride.
There is no KE and no HE given off at point 'A'.
The height of 'B' is ½ of 'A!'
Between 'A' & 'B' there are 50,000 J of heat
'B' has half the KE of 'C' & twice the KE of 'l'
'B' & 'G' have the same speed
'B' has twice the speed as 'D'
'D', 'F', & 'H' have the same KE
'F' has 5 times more heat energy built up than 'B'
'H' has ½ the PE of 'F'
'D' has as much height as 'F' plus 'H'
Follow the pattern to find the heat energy at 'E'
