Figure shows the roller coaster track. Each car will start from rest at point A and will roll with negligible friction. It is important that there should be at least some small positive normal force exerted by the track on the car at all points, otherwise the car would leave the track. With the above fact, the minimum safe value for the radius of curvature at point B is (g = 10 m/s2) :
Two masses m1 and m2 which are connected with a light string, are placed over a frictionless pulley. This set up is placed over a weighing machine, as shown. Three combination of masses m1 and m2 are used, in first case m1 = 6 kg and m2 = 2 kg, in second case m1 = 5 kg and m2 = 3kg and in third case m1 = 4 kg and m2 = 4 kg. Masses are held stationary initially and then released. If the readings of the weighing machine after the release in three cases are W1, W2 and W3 respectively then :
