Answer:
1472.98 m
Explanation:
Data provided:
Speed of circular looping, v = 340 m/s
Acceleration, a = 8g
here,
g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 9.81 m/s²
Now,
the centripetal acceleration is given as,
r is the radius of the loop
on substituting the respective values, we get
or
r = 1472.98 m
Answer:
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we need to make a free body diagram of the book and the forces that interact on it. In the picture below you can see the free body diagram with these forces.
The person holding the book is compressing it with his hands, thus exerting a couple of forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction with value F.
Now the key to solving this problem is to analyze the equilibrium condition (Newton's third law) on the x & y axes.
To find the weight of the book we simply multiply the mass of the book by gravity.
W = m*g
W = 1.3[kg] * 9.81[m/s^2]
W = 12.75 [N]
