During a plane showcase, a pilot makes circular "looping" with a speed equal to the sound speed (340 m/s). However, the pilot ca

n fall when the acceleration is more than 8g, with g being the gravitational constant. Find the radius of the smallest circle that the pilot can take. (HINT: Think about the centripetal acceleration).

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,

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

r is the radius of the loop

on substituting the respective values, we get

8\times9.81=\frac{340^2}{r}

or

r = 1472.98 m

A cylindrical metal can is to have no lid. It is to have a volume of 125π in3. What height minimizes the amount of metal used?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Minimum height of metal = 5 inches

Explanation:

Volume of the cylindrical metal = πR²H = 125π

cancelling out π on both sides

R²H = 125

Hence it can be deduced that R² = 25 and H = 5

Hence minimum height of metal = 5 inches
