(II) Tarzan plans to cross a gorge by swinging in an arc from a hanging vine (Fig. 5–42). If his arms are capable of exerting a force of 1150 N on the vine, what is the maximum speed he can tolerate at the lowest point of his swing? His mass is 78 kg and the vine is 4.7 m long. FIGURE 5-42 Problem 18.

A jumbo jet airplane has a mass of about 400,000 kg when fully loaded with over 400 passengers and takes off at a speed of 250 km/h. Determine the takeoff speed when the airplane has 100 empty seats. Assume each passenger with luggage is 140 kg and the wing and flap settings are maintained the same.
A bicyclist can coast down a 8.18 degree hill at a constant speed of 5.55 km/h. If the force of air resistance is proportional to the speed v so that Fair = c v, calculate the average force (in N) that must be applied in order to descend the hill at 19.3 km/h. The mass of the cyclist plus bicycle is 78.6 kg.
