A 3.0-kg rocket-propelled toy car has a speed of 6.0 m/s as it rides inverted at the top of a vertical circular track of radius 1.5 m. What is the force (in Newtons) exerted by the track on the car?
A 2.353E+3-kg race car travels around a flat, circular track at a constant speed of 74.5 m/s. The race track is a 8.88-km track (that's the circumference). Find the force (in N) of friction that the track exerts on the car's tires
Disturbed by speeding cars outside his workplace, Nobel laureate Arthur Holly Compton designed a speed bump (called the "Holly hump") and had it installed. Suppose a 1 800-kg car passes over a
hump in a roadway that follows the arc of a circle of radius 19.6 m as in the figure below.
