Question
an object moving in a circular path at a constant tangential velocity v is shown. the radial acceleration required for the object to move in the circular path is given by the equation: a= v^2/r (where a is the centripetal acceleration of the object is m/s^2, v is the tangential velocity of the object is m/s, and r is the turning radius in meters. suppose that the object is an aircraft, answer the following question about it.)
(a) suppose that the aircraft is moving at mach 85% of the speed of sound. if the centripetal acceleration is 2g, what is the turning radius of the aircraft?(speed of sound is 340m/s^2, 1 g =9.81m/s^2)
(b) suppose that the speed of the aircraft increases to mach 1.5 times of speed sound. what is the turning radius of the aircraft now?
(c) plot the turning radius as a function of aircraft speed for speeds betwen mach 0.5 and mach 2.0, assuming that the acceleration remains 2g.
(d) suppose that the maximum acceleration that the pilot can stand is 7g. what is the minimum possible turning radius of the aircraft at mach 1.5?
(e) plot the turning radius as a function of centripetal acceleration for accelerations between 2g and 8g, assuming a constant speed of mach 0.85.
please answer these question in program runs, thank you!
