The Top Thrill Dragster stratacoaster at Cedar Point Amusement Park in Ohio uses a hydraulic launching system to accelerate riders from 0 to 54 m/s (120 mi/hr) in 3.8 seconds before climbing a completely vertical 420-foot hill. Determine the net force required to accelerate an 86-kg man.

Answer:

A. 1222,10 N

Explanation:

First, we determine the value of the acceleration that the hydraulic launching system must guarantee. Let’s remember that the definition of acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. Therefore:

a_hyd = ∆v/∆t = (54 m/s-0)/(3,8 s-0) = 14,21 m/s^2  

According to Newton’s second law:

∑F_net = m*a = 86 kg*14,21 m/s^2 = 1222,10 N

So, the net force required to accelerate an 86-kg man is 1222,10 N

Have a nice day! :D
