Chapter 6, Problem 44AP
A model airplane of mass 0.750 kg flies with a speed of 35.0 m/s in a horizontal circle at the end of a 60.0-m-long control wire as shown in Figure P6.44a. The forces exerted on the airplane are shown in Figure P6.44b: the tension in the control wire, the gravitational force, and aerodynamic lift that acts at θ = 20.0° inward from the vertical. Compute the tension in the wire, assuming it makes a constant angle of θ = 20.0° with the horizontal.

The accompanying figure shows a frictionless channel in the shape of a segment of a circle with center at "O". The channel has been anchored to a frictionless horizontal table top. You are looking down at the table. Forces exerted by the air are negligible. A ball is shot at high speed into the channel at "p" and exits at "r."
Consider the following distinct forces:
A downward force of gravity.
A force exerted by the channel pointing from q to O.
A force in the direction of motion.
A force pointing from O to q.
Which of the forces is (are) acting on the ball when it is within the frictionless channel at position "q"?

A roller-coaster car of mass 309 kg (including passengers) travels around a horizontal curve of radius 35.2 m. Its speed is 21.3 m/s.
a. What is the magnitude of the total force exerted on the car by the track? answer in N
b. What is the direction of the total force exerted on the car by the track? Enter a positive angle if the direction is above horizontal and a negative answer if the direction is below horizontal. answer in degrees
c. If the track is frictionless, then what banking angle would ensure that the car does not slide off of the track? (The banking angle is the angle between the direction normal to the track and the vertical.) answer in degrees
A ball is on the end of a string. The ball is being swung in a vertical circle at a constant speed. The length of the string is 1.25 m. The mass of the ball is 2.10 kg. The maximum tension the string can withstand is 61.0 N. What is the max speed of the ball without breaking the string when the ball is at the top of the circle (point a)?

- I got 200 meters on this one.arrow_forwardYou have applied for a great summer job working with a special effects team at a movie studio. As part of your interview you have been asked to evaluate the design for a stunt in a new Indiana Jones production. A large spherical boulder starts from rest and rolls down an inclined track. At the bottom, the track curves up into a vertical circle so that the boulder can roll around on the inside of the circle and come back to ground level. It is important that the boulder not fall off the track at the top of the circle and crush the star standing below. You have been asked to determine the relationship between the heights of the boulder’s starting point on the ramp (measured from the center of the boulder) and the maximum radius of the circular part of the track. You can determine the mass and the radius of the boulder should you need to know them. You have been told that the moment of inertia of a sphere is 2/5 that of a ring of the same mass and radius.
