A jet plane comes in for a downward dive as shown above. The bottom part of the path is a quarter circle with a radius of curvature of 280 m. According to medical tests, pilots lose con- sciousness when they pull out of a dive at an upward acceleration greater than 5.5g. At what speed (in m/s) will the pilot black out for this dive?

A Lockheed Martin F-35 II lighting jet takes off from an aircraft carrier with a runway length of 90 m and a takeoff speed 70 m/s at the end of the runway. Jets are catapulted into airspace from the deck of an aircraft carrier with two sources of propulsion: the jet propulsion and the catapult. At the point of leaving the deck of the aircraft carrier, the F-35’s acceleration decreases to a constant acceleration of 5.0m/s2 at 30 with respect to the horizontal. (a) What is the initial acceleration of the F-35 on the deck of the aircraft carrier to make it airborne? (b) Write the position and velocity of the F-35 in unit vector notation from the point it leaves the deck of the aircraft carrier.
