Medical testing has established that the maximum acceleration a pilot can be subjected to without losing consciousness is approximately 5.00g. A pilot can avoid "blackout" at accelerations up to approximately 9.00g by wearing special "g-suits" that help keep blood pressure in the brain at a sufficient level. What is the minimum safe radius of curvature for the pilot wearing a g-suit and flying the F-15 in a horizontal circular loop at 672 km/h? m

A single bead can slide with negligible friction on a stiff wire that has been bent into a circular loop of radius 15.0 cm as shown in Figure P5.59. The circle is always in a vertical plane and rotates steadily about its vertical diameter with a period of 0.450 s.

(a) At what angle up from the bottom of the circle can the bead stay motionless relative to the turning circle? (b) What If ? Repeat the problem, this time taking the period of the circle’s rotation as 0.850 s. (c) Describe how the solution to part (b) is different from the solution to part (a).
