A group of engineering students constructs a sun-powered car and tests on a circular track of 300-meter radius. The car with a mass of 210 kg including the passenger and the driver, starts from rest. The total tangential components of force on the car is EF, = 125 – 2.50D, where D is the distance the car travels along the track from the point where it starts. a. When D=30m, compute the work done by the car. b. When D=30m, compute for its velocity. c. What is the magnitude of the total horizontal force exerted on the car by the road when the car travels D=30m?

A. Jack turns a crank on the well to fetch a pail of water for Jill. He exerts a constant force of magnitude 22N on the free end of the crank handle and the end moves on a circular path of radius 0.28 m. The force is always applied parallel to the motion of the handle. If the handle is turned once every 1.3 s, what is the average power that Jack applies to the handle?

I'm not sure how to work this problem. The problem gives an answer of Itot=Icm+Md^2=18.1 kg*m^2 for part A. The problem also gives an answer of a=6.41 rad/s^2 for part B but does not show how to work the problems to get to these answers.
A gas-powered model airplane has a mass of 2.50 kilograms. A student exerts a force on a cord to keep the airplane flying around her at a constant speed of 18.0 meters per second in a horizontal, circular path with a radius of 25.0 meters. Calculate the magnitude of the centripetal force exerted on the airplane to keep it moving in this circular path. Calculate the kinetic energy of the moving airplane.
