Question

Please include in your paragraph answer any equations you would need to calculate the velocity at the bottom of the slides.

Two children with the same mass are at a water park. Child A choses to slide down Slide A that has a 35% slope while Child B choses to slide down slide B which has a slope of 52%. If neither child "pushes off" or begins the sliding motion with any initial velocity and both slides are the same height, discuss the relative velocities of children at the bottom of the slides.

Answer 1

so for slide A accelartion of child along the slide is

and slope for child A is

so

so,

and for B

so

so

velocity of child A

similary for child B who is also at same height so time is same so,,

so velocity of child B is more than of A

so
