While driving along a country lane with a constant speed of 17 m/s, you
encounter a dip in the road. The dip can be approximated as a circular arc
with a radius of 65m. What is the normal force exerted by the car seat on
an 80kg passenger when the car is at the bottom of the dip?
A roller coaster car enters the circular loop portion of the ride. Determine the speed of the car at the very top of the circle (where the people in the car are upside down), the acceleration points straight down. If the diameter of the loop is 150m and the total mass of the car (plus passengers) is 1500 kg, and the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the track on the car at this point is 500N.
Disturbed by speeding cars outside his workplace, Nobel laureate Arthur Holly Compton designed a speed bump (called the
"Holly hump") and had it installed. Suppose a 1800-kg car passes over a hump in a roadway that follows the arc of a circle
of radius 19.0 m as in the figure below.

- Why is the following situation impossible? The object of mass m = 4.00 kg in Figure P5.18 is attached to a vertical rod by two strings of length = 2.00 m. The strings are attached to the rod at points a distance d = 3.00 m apart. The object rotates in a horizontal circle at a constant speed of v = 3.00 m/s, and the strings remain taut. The rod rotates along with the object so that the strings do not wrap on to the rod. What If?
