Two identical metal balls are being held side by side at the top of a ramp. Alex lets one ball, \( A \), start rolling down the hill. A few seconds later, Alex’s partner, Bob, starts the second ball, \( B \), down the hill by giving it a push. Ball \( B \) rolls down an identical, parallel path to the first ball and passes it. At the instant ball \( B \) passes ball \( A \) (select all that apply):

An experimenter has a simple pendulum of length \( L \) and a mass–spring system with mass \( m \) and spring constant \( k \). Both are found to have the same period of oscillation \( T \) on Earth. If both systems are taken to the Moon, where the acceleration due to gravity is approximately \( \frac{1}{6} g \) of Earth, what will happen to their periods?

A car is moving up the side of a circular roller coaster loop of radius \( 12 \) \( \text{m} \). The angular velocity is \( 1.8 \) \( \text{rad/s} \) and angular acceleration is \( -0.82 \) \( \text{rad/s}^2 \). The car is at the same elevation as the center of the loop. Find the magnitude and direction (relative to the horizontal) of the acceleration.
