can someone help me set up a kinetic equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my mass is 1000kg i know the equation is (.5)(1OOO) but what is v^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@wolf1728

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

that would be velocity²

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i find that

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

are you using the equation energy = 1/2 m•v²

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i have an example problem but idk how to find velocity of a rollercoaster oncard board

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Well, you will need the velocity. Can you show the whole problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so i made a roller coaster and i have to find... http://classjump.com/c/cojophysics/documents/Roller_Coaster_Project.doc

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i need to fone the KE my PE is 313.6 my kg is 1000 my height for the KE is .03

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Wow - what you are doing is way beyond my knowledge. And I'm guessing you need this for Six Flags and not for school?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no school

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

That is a very advanced project for school. (especially since they want the velocity calculated)

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

You are to build an original model of a roller coaster and make it so that a marble can travel the entire distance? Have you tried the marble test at all?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its on paper

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hello?

OpenStudy (dylangr1997):

hey

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey help?

OpenStudy (dylangr1997):

Can you give me a summary of the question. I cant follow the conversation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so look at that website i posted i have to draw a roller coaster on a poster i need to find the velocity for the kenetic equation but i don't get how to get it if its on paper

OpenStudy (dylangr1997):

one sec my computer is loading the doc

OpenStudy (dylangr1997):

what does your design look like
