To anticipate the dip and the hump in the road, the driver of a car applies his brakes to produce a uniform deceleration. His speed is100kph at the bottom A of the dip and 50 kph at the top C of the hump. The length of the road from A to Cis 120m. The radius ofcurvature of the hump at C is 150m. The total acceleration at A is 3 m/s^2.Compute the total acceleration in m/s^2 at C.60 mВ60 mAA) 3.692.662.73D) 3.08E) 2.96

In a laboratory test of tolerance for high acceleration, a pilot is swung in a circle 15.0 m in diameter. It is found that the pilot blacks out when he is spun at 30.6 rpm (rev/min). At what acceleration (in SI units) does the pilot black out? acceleration: 77.01 m/s? Express this acceleration in terms of a multiple of g. acceleration as a multiple of g: 7.858 If you want to decrease the acceleration by 22.0% without changing the diameter of the circle, by what percent must you change the time for the pilot to make one circle? percent of time change:
On a strange planet the acceleration due to gravity is 20 ft/s^2 downwards towards the planet surface. If an object is launched from the ground with an initial velocity of 320 ft/s at an angle of 30 with the horizontal. Find the time the object is in the air, the time at which it reaches its maximum height and what that height is, and compute the tangential and normal accelerations at that point.
A jet fighter flying at 300 m/s (just below the speed of sound) makes a turn of radius 2.55 km. (a) What is its centripetal acceleration in gs? (b) Suppose the pilot makes an emergency turn to avoid an approaching missile, subjecting himself to a centripetal acceleration of 10 gs, while flying at 565 m/s (supersonic). What is the radius, in km, of his turn? (This must be short-lived because fighter planes can only briefly endure such large accelerations without serious damage, and the pilot will soon black out at 10 gs.)
