She has 50.0 meters to get up to speed before going into the loop. Assuming there is no friction or air resistance, what maximum force must be applied to the motorcycle over the 50.0 m in order for her to make it through the loop without losing consciousness? Most humans can experience accelerations up to 3g before losing consciousness. Assume the combined mass of the rider and motorcycle is 250 kg.
