Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Question

A Formula One race car with mass 750.0 kg is speeding through a course in Monaco and enters a circular turn at 220.0 km/h in the counterclockwise direction about the origin of the circle. At another part of the course, the car enters a second circular turn at 180 km/h also in the counterclockwise direction. If the radius of curvature of the first turn is 130.0 m and that of the second is 100.0 m, compare the angular momenta of the race car in each turn taken about the origin of the circular turn.

A geosynchronous Earth satellite is one that has an orbital period of precisely 1 day. Such orbits are sueful for communication and weather observation because the satellite remains above the same point on Earth (provided it orbits in the equatorial plane in the same direction as Earth’s rotation).

A block of wood with wheels has a mass M and is sitting at rest on the ground (ignore all friction). A bullet of mass m is fired into the block, becoming lodged inside of it. This inelastic collission causes the block of wood (with the bullet in it) to move. It moves on a track with a loop with radius R. Calculate the minimum velocity v of the bullet needed so that block/bullet can make it through the loop without falling off.
A scientist claims that people who compete in the Olympic event of skeleton are insane.

At a speed of 75 mph, calculate the total force on a 145-lb rider. Round the final answer to the nearest whole number.
