So you want to be an astronaut. There is a new “test” that all must go through call the vertical circle of death (well at least that is what we will call it). On this “ride” you (m=76kg) are spun in a 18m diameter vertical circle once every 1.5s.
a) what is your angular speed?
b) what is the magnitude of your centripetal acceleration?
c) what is your apparent weight at the top and the bottom of the ride?
a)
w = 2 pi / T = 2* 3.14 / 1.5 = 4.187 rad/s
b)
ac = r w^2 = 9* 4.187^2 = 157.75 m/s^2
c)
apparent weight at top
W = m ac - mg
W = 76* ( 157.75 - 9.8)
W = 11244.5 N
apparent weight at bottom
W = 76 ( ac + g)
W = 12733.8 N
==========
Comment in case any doubt, will reply for sure.. Goodluck

3. So you want to be an astronaut. There is a new "test" that all must go through call the vertical circle of death (well at least that is what we will call it). On this "ride" you (m-76kg) are spun in a 18m diameter vertical circle once every 2.0s. a) what is your angular speed? b) what is the magnitude of your centripetal acceleration? c) what is your apparent weight at the top and the bottom of the ride?
Variation in your apparent weight is desirable when you ride a roller coaster; it makes the ride fun. However, too much variation over a short period of time can be painful. For this reason, the loops of real roller coasters are not simply circles like (Figure 1) . A typical loop is shown in(Figure 2) . The radius of the circle that matches the track at the top of the loop is much smaller than that of a matching circle...
You are designing the section of a roller coaster ride shown in the figure. Previous sections of the ride give the train a speed of 14.9 m/s at the top of the incline, which is 38.3 m above the ground. As any good engineer would, you begin your design with safety in mind. Your local government's safety regulations state that the riders' centripetal acceleration should be no more than n 1.57 g at the top of the hump and no...

please ask that you clearly
go over what is different in each spot (top, bottom, and middle? I
don't understand the difference between the top and bottom, isnt
there just a normal force up and gravity down for both ? And isnt
there just a normal force up and gravity down in the middle too ??
Please help. And please make the force diagrams just so I can
really understand. (and please, please solve the whole problem I
really need...
7. A highway curve with a radius of R metres is banked so that cars moving at v m/s around the curve do not have to rely on friction when taking the turn. IWPS 7. No.4] 7.1 Show (from first principles) that the angle, 6, at which, the road should be banked is given by: 0 arctan 7.2 A particular banked highway curve with a radius of 200 m is designed for traffic moving at 60 km/h.

can someone show me how to do every single procedure. thank
you so much !
3. Wanting to show your friends a cool demonstration that seems to break the laws of physics, you swing a pail of water in a vertical circle. You swing the bucket a couple times, no water comes out at the top, and complete each circle in 1.5 seconds. If your arm length is 60 cm and the bucket/water have a mass of 1.00 kg, determine...
2. A brav e 90 kg man, named Steve, agrees to give a Gravitron a test ride for the first time. The Gravitron has a diameter of 10 m. It is programed to spin faster and faster until it achieves ution in 15 s. Once it maintains this speed, the floor of the Gravitron lowers itself, s. Once it leaving the riders to hang in midair. raw a picture and an FBD of Steve as if you are looking at...
You are riding the new rollercoaster Fizzix Phun at your local amusement park. The technician with a mass of 90kg clears your car for 'takeoff'. The rollercoaster car full of people with a mass of 2000 kg is pulled up the initial hill by a lift device. The maintenance stairs up to the top of the hill consist of 11 flights of 30 stairs each wherein a single stair are 10cm high. The drop down the first hill is terrifyingly...
