- A Ride Inside a Tractor Tire. You and your friends plan to roll down a hill on the inside of 600-pound tractor tire (radius R = 1.80 m). The hill is inclined at an angle of 22.0° and you initially plan to start from a distance L = 80.0 m up the hill, but decide to first check whether it will be safe. (a) Assuming the masses of the tire and your 105-pound body are concentrated at the outer rim of a thin-walled cylinder/hoop, what is the effective acceleration (in terms of g) your body experiences at the bottom of the hill where your angular speed is greatest, i.e., how many "g's" will you experience? Assuming the human body can withstand a g-force of 8.0 g's (1g=9.8 m/s2), is it safe to make the ride from 80.0 m up the hill?

The boat's owner loves high speed, but does not really want to go anywhere. So the owner revs up the boat's engine, makes a lot of noise, and runs the boat in circles around the buoy with the cable supplying all the necessary centripetal force. When the tension of the cable is steady at 12300 N, with what force is the boat's engine pushing the boat? Different physics textbooks treat drag force somewhat differently and use different formulas. For the present purpose, take the water's drag force on the boat to be (450 kg/m) × v², where v denotes the boat's speed. Ignore any drag force on the cable. force: N & TOOLS x10arrow_forward
