- Q5arrow_forwardYou are riding a dirt bike around a vertical loop that is in a spherical cage. In order for the dirt bike to maintain good traction, you want the normal force of the loop on the dirt bike to be at least twice the weight of the dirt bike when you are at the bottom of the cage. If the sphyrical cage has a radius of 7m, what is your speed at the bottom of the sphyrical cage? Construct the free body diagram of the dirt bike when it is at the top of the loop.arrow_forwardIn an amusement park ride called The Roundup, passengers stand inside a 18 m diameter rotating ring. After the ring has acquired sufficient speed, it tilts into a vertical plane. Consider that a rider has a mass of 61 kg. a. Suppose the ring rotates once every 6 s. How much force does the ring push on her at the top of the ride? Ftop = N b. Suppose the ring rotates once every 4.5 s. How much force does the ring push on her at the bottom of the ride? Fbot = N c. What is the longest rotation period of the wheel that will prevent the riders from falling off at the top? T = sarrow_forward

A 1800 kg car's tires have a coefficient of friction equal to 0.25 on wet asphalt. What is the fastest that this car can drive along a flat turn with a radius of 200 m without slipping? B. How would this speed change if the car had a mass of 3600 kg instead? C. How would this speed change if the road were slanted? Would the possible speed be higher or lower?arrow_forwardMichael Jordan has a portable basketball hoop in his driveway. He has set the basket at 8 ft (2.4 m) high so he can practice dunking the ball (he’s a bit older now, so he can’t quite jump “Air” Jordan style). He slams the ball through the hoop and then hangs on to the rim. This exerts a downward force of 600 N on the front of the rim. The front of the rim is 1.1 m in front of the front edge of the portable hoop’s base. The mass of the whole portable basketball hoop is 70 kg. The center of gravity of the portable hoop is 1.0 m behind the front edge of the base. How much torque is produced around the front of the hoop base by the 600 N force Air Jordan exerts on the front of the rim? How much torque is needed to tip the hoop? What is the largest vertical force that can be exerted on the front edge of the rim before the portable hoop begins to tip?arrow_forward
