    Parabola passes through the points (0,4), (0,-1) and (6,1)

    I have a few problems for a review section in my book for a test comming up soon. i am confused on a few problems and was wondering if some1 could help please? 1.) The Axis is horizontal; the parabola passes through the points (0,4), (0,-1) and (6,1) I am very confused on this problem...

    What Is the i,j Form of a Vector?

    ok so for U for example, U in form i,j would be 1i + 1j and 2i + 4j ?? I am lost a little or does this mean 2i + 1i = 3 and 4j + 1j = 5 so U(i,j) = (3,5) ??

    What Is the i,j Form of a Vector?

    vector help asap please! I have a problem that says define the i,j form of a vector and write the following vectors in i,j form u = P(1,1) to Q(2,4) and v = P(6, -3) to Q(7,0). I looked all through my book, and cannot find a definition for the i,j form of a vector ( i checked...

    Understanding Asymptotes and Polynomials in Pre-Calculus

    Ok, I have a final in Pre-Calc comming up, and I am still a bit confused on finding asymtotes (vertical, horizontal, and slant) could someone help me with equations i can use to find the asymtotes or how i do? I am just really confused. Heres the problem. Find the vertical asymtote(s): F(x)...

    How Do You Calculate the Final Velocity of a Car on a Curved Track?

    Im Having problems with 2D- curved track velocities. The question is...Find an Equation to find the velocity final of a car with mass - m going down a curved track with a coefficient of Friction - Uk The track is height - h above the ground and has an initial Velocity of Vi...so basically...

    Calculating Energy and Speed in a 2-Dimensional Roller Coaster

    well, i can get the angle of the track, and possily the length of the arc, but i do not know how to get the radii, and how does it remove energy? turn it into heat? i could show you the problem on excell if that helps :confused:

    Calculating Energy and Speed in a 2-Dimensional Roller Coaster

    Ok, I am still confused, so let's get a hypethetical question... 1.) The coaster weight is 6400 kg, and is released from rest at a height of 95.8 meters. FInd the Initial energy after the coaster travels 20 meters distance and has a height of 7.3 meters, and find the Velocity at the same...

    Calculating Energy and Speed in a 2-Dimensional Roller Coaster

    So initial energy is the same as total energy?and centripetal acceleration matters because the track moves up and down, creating g-forces.. I am still very confused :confused: :confused: To clarify more, The roller coaster is like going down and up hills. Except the hills can change so height...

    Calculating Energy and Speed in a 2-Dimensional Roller Coaster

    Ok...i am confused on some equations..please help me get a start, I am not asking for the answer, just something to go off of please :smile: So your on a 2-Dimensional Roller coaster, and you start at a height of H with an initial velocity of 0 m/s and a total distance of 0 m The track...

    Solving Equations for Track Graph on Microsoft Excel

    yes, Think of a track that goes up and down at random points...thats what its saying...so what is the speed with Centripetal acceleration added..I am still very confused..because none of my equations are working :confused: :cry:

    Solving Equations for Track Graph on Microsoft Excel

    I am having some problems with equations for a problem. The problem isn't really a question, it's more of finding equations to make something work. Basically, It is a graph on Microsoft Excel, that resembles a 2D track. The track has variable points that you can change, to increase height...

    How fast is the trainee rotating in circular motion?

    Oh, ok, i just worked it out and got 62.8 meters for the circumference. Is that what you got? ( I hadnt tried to find circumference or velocity, just going with his numbers )
