Question

Hi all, just a general question. What is the Fnet equation for a frictionless banked turn?

Answer 1

involving Fnormal and Fgrav!!!

Answer 2

i m not sure what u r asking about
in frictionless banked road
Nsin(theta) = mv^2/r
and N cos (theta) = mg :S

Answer 3

Thank you for your response. However, I was actually referring to an Fnet equation involving Fnorm and Fgrav. For example, when you are at the top of a hill on a roller coaster, the Fnet= Fgrav-Fnorm. Any idea what something like that would be for a frictionless banked turn?

Answer 4

Fnet = mg - Ncos(thetha)

Answer 5

N being the normal force?

Answer 6

Yes

Answer 7

thank you so much!!!!
:D

Answer 8

no worries Sir :)
