Effect of height on a normal force


Assignment:

Question.Sarah Jane Smith rides a friction less roller coaster with an initial hill height H (on top of which the car is barely moving. At the bottom, where the track has a radius of curvature R, the car has a speed V and she feels 25% heavier than her actual weight (that is, Fn = 1.25 Fg, where Fn is the normal force the seat exerts on her).

  • If the hill were four times as tall, the magnitude of the normal force acting on her at the bottom would be?
