Answer:

a = 3.61[m/s^2]

Explanation:

To find this acceleration we must remember newton's second law which tells us that the total sum of forces is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

In this case we have:

F = m*a\\\\m=mass = 3.6[kg]\\F = force = 13[N]\\13 = 3.6*a\\a = 3.61[m/s^2]

I can't particularly place what Icelandic contributed.

But every  other culture contributed majorly.

So I would go for option b.

An 85,000 kg stunt plane performs a loop-the-loop, flying in a 260-m-diameter vertical circle. at the point where the plane is f
konstantin123 [22]
A) When the plane is flying straight down, there are three forces acting on it:
- the centripetal force  F=m \frac{v^2}{r}, directed toward the center of the circle (so, horizontally)
- the weight of the plane: W=mg, downward, so vertically
- a third force, given by the propulsion of the plane, which is accelerating it towards the ground (because the problem says that the plane has an acceleration of a=12 m/s^2 towards the ground)

The radius of the circle is r= \frac{260 m}{2} = 130 m, so the centripetal force acting on the plane is
F_c=m \frac{v^2}{r} = \frac{(85000 kg)(55 m/s)^2}{130 m}=1.98 \cdot 10^6 N
On the vertical axis, we have two forces: the weight
W=mg=(85000 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=8.34 \cdot 10^5 N
and the other force F given by the propulsion. Since we know that their sum should generate an acceleration equal to a=12 m/s^2, we can find the magnitude of this other force F by using Newton's second law:
F+mg=ma
F=m(a-g)=(85000kg)(12 m/s^2-9.81 m/s^2)=1.86 \cdot 10^5 N

So, the net force acting on the plane will be the resultant of the centripetal force (acting in the horizontal direction) and the two forces W and F (acting in the vertical direction):
R= \sqrt{(F_c^2+(W+F)^2}=
= \sqrt{(1.98\cdot 10^6N)^2+(8.34 \cdot 10^5N+1.86 \cdot 10^5 N)^2}  =2.23 \cdot 10^6 N

(b) The tangent of the angle with respect to the horizontal is the ratio between the sum of the forces in the vertical direction (taken with negative sign, since they are directed downward) and the forces acting in the horizontal direction, so:
\tan \theta =  \frac{-(W+F)}{F_c}= -0.5
And so, the angle is
\theta = \arctan (-0.5)=-26.8 ^{\circ}

Over [174]

Answer:

v=32.9m/s

Explanation:

The acceleration needed to mantain a circular motion of radius r and speed v is given by the equation a=v^2/r

This is the centripetal acceleration. The person will feel what is called a centrifugal acceleration, of the same value, because he is not in an inertial frame (thus subject to fictitious forces, product of inertia).

We want to know the speed of his head when it is subject to 12.5 times the value of the acceleration of gravity while moving on a 8.84m radius circle, so we must do:

v=\sqrt{ar} = \sqrt{12.5gr}=\sqrt{(12.5)(9.8m/s)(8.84m)}=32.9m/s
