Modem roller coasters have vertical loops like the one shown here. The radius of curvature is smaller at the top than on the sides so that the downward centripetal acceleration at the top will be greater than the acceleration due to gravity, keeping the passengers pressed firmly into their seats. (a) What is the speed of the roller coaster at the top of the loop if the radius of curvature there is 15.0 m and the downward acceleration of the car is 1.50 g ? (b) How high above the top of the loop must the roller coaster start from rest, assuming negligible friction? (c) If it actually starts 5.00 m higher than your answer to (b), how much energy did it lose to friction? Its mass is 1.50103kg .
Unreasonable Results (a) Based on Kepler's laws and information on the orbital characteristics of the Moon, calculate the orbital radius for an Earth satellite having a period of 1.00 h. (b) What is unreasonable about this result? (c) What is unreasonable or inconsistent about the premise of a 1.00 h orbit?
(a) A 22.0 kg child is riding a playground merry-go-round that is rotating at 40.0 rev/min. What centripetal force must she exert to stay on if she is 1.25 m from its center? (b) What centripetal force does she need to stay on an amusement park merry-go-round that rotates at 3.00 rev/min if she is 8.00 m from its center? (c) Compare each force with her weight.

A string under a tension of 50.0 N is used to whirl a rock in a horizontal circle of radius 2.50 m at a speed of 20.4 m/s on a fricitonless surface as shown in Figure P6.25. As the string is pulled in, the speed of the rock increases. When the string on the table is 1.00 m long and the speed of the rock is 51.0 m/s, the string breaks. What is the breaking strength, in newtons, of the string? Figure P6.25
Artificial gravity is produced in a space station by rotating it, so it is a noninertial reference frame. The rotation means that there must be a centripetal force exerted on the occupants: this centripetal force is exerted by the walls of the station. The space station in Arthur C. Clarkes 2001: A Space Odyssey is in the shape of a four-spoked wheel with a diameter of 155 m. If the space station rotates at a rate of 2.40 revolutions per minute, what is the magnitude of the artificial gravitational acceleration provided to a space tourist walking on the inner wall of the station?
An object executes circular motion with constant speed whenever a net force of constant magnitude acts perpendicular to the velocity. What happens to the speed if the force is not perpendicular to the velocity?
What is the gravitational acceleration close to the surface of a planet with a mass of 2ME and radius of 2RE where ME, and RE are the mass and radius of Earth, respectively? Answer as a multiple of g, the magnitude of the gravitational acceleration near Earths surface. (See Section 7.5.)
In a race like the Indianapolis 500, a driver circles the track counterclockwise and feels his head pulled toward one shoulder. To relieve his neck muscles from having to hold his head erect, the driver fastens a strap to one wall of the car and the other to his helmet. The length of the strap is adjusted to keep his head vertical. (a) Which shoulder does his head tend to lean toward? (b) What force or forces produce the centripetal acceleration when there is no strap? (c) What force or forces do so when there is a strap?
An office door is given a sharp push and swings open against a pneumatic device that slows the door down and then reverses its motion. At the moment the door is open the widest, (a) does the doorknob have a centripetal acceleration? (b) Does it have a tangential acceleration?
A bead slides freely along a curved wire lying on a horizontal surface at constant speed as shown by Figure 5.14.

(b) Suppose the bead in Figure 5.14 speeds up with constant tangential acceleration as it moves toward the right. Draw the vectors representing the force on the bead at points , , and .
A woman places her briefcase on the backseat of her car. As she drives to work, the car negotiates an unbanked curve in the road that can be regarded as an arc of a circle of radius 62.0 m. While on the curve, the speed of the car is 15.0 m/s at the instant the briefcase starts to slide across the backseat toward the side of the car. (a) What force causes the centripetal acceleration of the briefcase when it is stationary relative to the car? Under what condition does the briefcase begin to move relative to the car? (b) What is the coefficient of static friction between the briefcase and seat surface?
