Respuesta :
The only thing acting as the roller coaster gets to the bottom is gravity thus
acceleration is 9.81
so u use the formula
vf^2 = vi^2 + 2abetaD
thus
distance = vf^2 - vi^2 divided by 2a
so 26^2 - 0^2 divided by 2(9.81m/s)
equals 676 divided by 2(9.81m/s)
= 34.45463812m
then use the appropriate 3 sig digs
so 34.5m
hopes this helps
