When looping the loop, the Blue Angels stunt pilots of the U.S. Navy fly their jet aircraft along a vertical circle of diameter 1000 m. At the top of the circle, the speed is 350 km/h; at the bottom of the circle, the speed is 620 km/h. What is the centripetal acceleration at the top? At the bottom? In the reference frame of one of these aircraft, what is the acceleration that the pilot feels at the top and at the bottom; i.e., what is the acceleration relative to the aircraft of a small body, such as a coin, released by the pilot?
