Chapter 5, Problem 5.98P
Jack sits in the chair of a Ferris wheel that is rotating at a constant 0.100 rev/s. As Jack passes through the highest point of his circular path, the upward force that the chair exerts on him is equal to one-fourth of his weight. What is the radius of the circle in which Jack travels? Treat him as a point mass.

Scientists are experimenting with a kind of gun that may eventually be used to fire payloads directly into orbit. In one test, this gun accelerates a 7.6-kg projectile from rest to a speed of 5.1 × 103 m/s. The net force accelerating the projectile is 6.4 × 105 N. How much time is required for the projectile to come up to speed?
