Rupert (66 kg) is now in a full-pipe of radius 25 m, calculate the minimum speed at which Rupert can skate to ensure he will not a fall off the skateboard at the top of the pipe?

**SHOW WORK**

Respuesta :

at the top most point if Rupert will not fall then normal force at the top point is almost zero for minimum speed

so here we can say

[tex]F_n + mg = m\frac{v^2}{R}[/tex]

now if

[tex]F_n = 0[/tex]

[tex]mg = \frac{mv^2}{R}[/tex]

[tex]v = \sqrt{Rg}[/tex]

[tex]v = \sqrt{25 \times 9.8}[/tex]

[tex]v = 15.65 m/s[/tex]

so above will be the minimum speed
