At a circus, a stunt rider is going to do a "Loop-de-Loop". The radius of the circular part of the track is 8.13 m. The mass of the motorcycle and the rider is 318. kg. What is the minimum speed the motorcycle must have to just make it around the loop without falling?
Modern roller coasters have vertical loops like the one shown. The radius of curvature is smaller at the top than on the sides so that the downward centripetal acceleration at the top will be greater than the acceleration due to gravity, keeping the passengers pressed firmly into their seats. What is the speed of the roller coaster at the top of the loop if the radius of curvature there is 15.0 m and the downward acceleration of the car is 1.50 g?
A roller coaster contains a loop-the-loop in which the car and rider are completely upside down at the top of the loop. The radius of the loop is 16 m. What minimum speed (in m/s) must the car have at the top so that the rider does not fall out while upside down? Assume the rider is not strapped to the car. 12.53 m/s. What is the magnitude of the normal force at the top of the loop? What is the magnitude of the normal force at the bottom of the loop?
A 1500 kg car moving on a flat, horizontal road negotiates a curve.

A car drives around two circular curves on two different roads. The two curves have the same radius of curvature. And coincidentally, the maximum speed that the car can drive through either of the turns is the same for both roads. The first road is frictionless, but it is banked at 14.5 degrees from the horizontal. The other turn is flat. What is the coefficient of friction between the car tires and the road on the unbanked turn?
A curve in a stretch of highway has radius 512 m. The road is unbanked. The coefficient of static friction between the tires and road is 0.700. What is the maximum safe speed that a car can travel around the curve without skidding?
A car drives around a curve with radius 400 m at a speed of 32 m/s. The road is banked at 7.0 degree. The mass of the car is 1500 kg. What is the magnitude of the centripetal force in order to make this turn? I am given an answer of 3800N, but not quite sure how to get there. Thanks!

A jet pilot flies his aircraft in a vertical loop at a speed of 1200 km/h. Part A What is the minimum radius of the circle (in meters) such that the pilot experiences no more than 6.0 g of centripetal acceleration when at the bottom of the loop? Part B The pilot has a mass of 78 kg. What is his effective weight at the bottom of the loop? Part C The pilot has a mass of 78 kg. What is his effective weight at the top of the loop? (Assume the same speed.)
The passengers in a roller coaster feel 42 % heavier than their true weight as the car goes through a loop with a 30 m radius of curvature. What is the car's speed at the bottom of the loop? Use g = 10 N/kg. Hint: How heavy some one feels is another name for normal force. The problem therefore tells you the normal force. If you know weight and normal force, you can determine centripetal acceleration. You can substitute a value for mass if you wish.
NASA uses a machine often called the "vomit comet" to mimic the effects of low gravity in space during astronaut training. The machine moves in circular arcs at a speed of v = 214 m/s. What is the radius the pilot must fly to create weightlessness as they go around the top of the circular arc? Give your answer in meters.
