- Cross country runners must turn a corner around a tree obstacle, in the rain. a) The first runner takes a wide line to the tree and runs around a curve with a radius of 1.5 m and undergoes a radial acceleration of 10 m/s2. Determine their tangential velocity during the curve. b) The second runner is trying to catch up and so runs closer to the tree. If a loss of control (slip) occurs at a radial acceleration of 22 m/s2, does the runner manage to run around a curve with a radius of 0.50 m at a tangential velocity of 3.5 m/s?arrow_forwardWhen a fighter pilot makes a very quick turn, he experiences a centripetal acceleration. When this acceleration is greater than about 4 × g the pilot will usually lose consciousness (“black out”). Consider a pilot flying at a speed of 950 m/s who wants to make a very sharp turn. What is the minimum radius of curvature that he can take without blacking out?arrow_forward
