Thanks Pion :). So therefore the radius is actually larger. I'm still confused about the free body diagram because I feel like i am missing a variable and don't know how to set it up.
Homework Statement
A plane pilot takes his aircraft in a vertical loop. If the plane is moving at a speed of 700km/h at the lowest point of the loop:
a) Determine the minimum radius of the circle so the pilots acceleration does not exceed 6 g's
b) What is the pilot's effective weight at the...
Thanks for replying:
I think I've got it, the one thing I am stuck on is whether Radial Distance is Directly proportional to the Period of Rotation. If these two are directly proportional, does that mean they are each directly proportional to velocity as well? How do I figure the direct...
Homework Statement
This is not like a wheel where distance does not matter because a particular point will pass at the same time no matter how far down or up the wheel.
In this experiment, I used a string attached to a stopper (at the top) with a washer (on the bottom). There was a glass...
