A space probe is launched from Earth headed for deep space. At a distance of 10,000 km from Earth's center, the gravitational force on it is 900 N. What is the magnitude of the force when the probe is 30,000 km from Earth's center?
The passengers in a roller coaster feel 42 % heavier than their true weight as the car goes through a loop with a 30 m radius of curvature. What is the car's speed at the bottom of the loop? Use g = 10 N/kg. Hint: How heavy some one feels is another name for normal force. The problem therefore tells you the normal force. If you know weight and normal force, you can determine centripetal acceleration. You can substitute a value for mass if you wish.
