Well he could remove the drawers to make it lighter, which causes less friction
Newton’s Third Law!
Every action has an equal, but opposite, reaction. When you jump from the boat, you exert force on the boat as you leap from it. Since the boat rests on a liquid instead of a solid (much less friction), it moves away from the jumper as a result of the leap.
Answer:
a) 39.6 m/s b) 4123 N
Explanation:
a) At the top of the loop, all of the forces point downwards (force of gravity and normal force).
Fnet=ma
ma=m(v^2/R) (centripetal acceleration)
mg=m(v^2/R)
m cancels out (this is why pilot feels weightless) so,
g=(v^2/R)
9.8 m/s^2 = v^2/160 m
v^2=1568 m^2/s^2
v=39.6 m/s
b) At the bottom of the loop, the normal force and the force of gravity point in opposite directions. The normal force is the weight felt.
Convert 300 km/hr to m/s
300 km/hr=83.3 m/s
Convert pilot's weight into mass:
760 N = 77.55 kg
Fnet=ma
n-mg=m(v^2/R)
n=(77.55 kg)(((83.3 m/s)^2)/160 m)+(77.55 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)
n=3363.2 N+760 N=4123 N
