P8. A 30kg child rides a circus train that performs vertical turns of radius 20 m every 22 sec. What is the resulting force when the child is at the top of the trajectory?
A roller coaster consists of a car attached underneath a thin rail in the shape shown in the figure. The rail loops are circular and there is no friction between the carriage and the rail. The car is represented by the red block and the gray dotted line is a visualization of a part of the path that the car follows.
(a) What is the minimum speed v_0 that the car must have at the bottom of the loop system for its centripetal acceleration to satisfy a_c = g at the top of the large loop? Write your answer in terms of R, g
(b) Will that speed be the same for the condition a_c = g to hold at the top of the small loop? Show why?
An electric fan is rotating at a constant 72,000 meters per hour, making one complete rotation in 0.17 seconds.(a) What is the magnitude of the speed of the bug sitting on one of fan's blades? (b) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the bug sitting on one of fan's blades?
