A 0.605 kg toy train engine is travelling around a horizontal circular track. The track has a radius of 0.830 m. The track can provide a maximum horizontal force of 3.00 N resulting in circular motion. What is the minimum time that the train can take to travel once around the track. Assume the that the train maintains a constant speed. State the time in seconds to 2 decimal places.

DETERMINE A FORMULA FOR THE ACCELERATION OF THE SYSTEM IN TERMS OF mA,mB θA, θB AND g.
B) IF θA= 32, θB=23 AND mA= 5.0kg, what value of MBwill keep the system at rest? What would be the tension in the string in this case (neglect mass)?
Just before entering the tunnel, you notice the sign that says you must "use the tunnel with your bicycle on foot" but it is too late and you are descending through the tunnel with an initial speed of 6.6 km / h. The tunnel has a semicircular ramp with radius R = 6.3 m, and its mass combined with the mass of the bicycle is 60.3 kg.
a) Find the velocity at the bottom of the curve, point 2, for when the friction force is negligible.
