Question
26. Snoopy, in hot pursuit of the Red Baron, is flying his
vintage warplane in a “loop-the-loop" path. His
instruments tell him that the plane is level (at the
bottom of the loop) and travelling at a speed of
180 km/h. He is sitting on a set of bathroom scales.
He notes that the scales show four times his normal
weight. What is the radius of the loop, in metres?
