Textbook Question
Chapter 9, Problem 1AC
As part of their training, NASA astronauts are placed in large rotating machines to see how well their bodies can withstand various “g” forces. (One g equals the gravitational force of gravity at the earth’s surface.) (a) What rotational speed is needed in a device with radius 6.25 m to allow a 75.8-kg astronaut to experience a force that is twice his normal weight or “2 g”? (b) What rotational speed is needed to achieve a “4 g” effect? (c) Would the rotational speeds found in (a) and (b) change if the astronaut had a different mass?

Truck suspensions often have "helper springs" that engage at high loads. One such arrangement is a leaf spring with a helper coil spring mounted on the axle, as in the figure below. The helper spring engages when the main leaf spring is compressed by distance yo, and then helps to
support any additional load. Consider a leaf spring constant of 5.45 × 105 N/m, helper spring constant of 3.60 × 105 N/m, and y = 0.500 m.
