Chapter 12.1, Problem 12.50P
A 54-kg pilot flies a jet trainer in a half-vertical loop of 1200-m radius so that the speed of the trainer decreases at a constant rate. Knowing that the pilot’s apparent weights at point A and C are 1680 N and 350 N, respectively, determine the force exerted on her by the seat of the trainer when the trainer is at point B.
