Calculate Force Required To Move Vehicles In Circular Motion


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

There is big roller coaster loop 100% round and vehicles are moving in this circular path, I want to calculate how much force will be required to move these vehicles.

 

Circle path diameter: 100 meter

Time: 1 round completed in 15 minutes

1 vehicle mass: 1,000 kg

Total Vehicles: 50

 

All vehicles are tied with each other just like train or roller coaster cars.

 

What force will be required to move these vehicles at required speed i.e. 1 round completed in 15 minutes. What's equation and how to solve it.

 

Please help me

 

Robert
