The pilot of a jet fighter will black out at an acceleration greater than approximately a1 = 5.00 g if it lasts for more than a few seconds. Express a1 in m/s2.
Express a1 in ft/s2.
The acceleration of the passenger during a car crash with an air bag is about a2 = 65.0 g for a very short time. What is a2 in m/s2?
What is a2 in ft/s2?
The acceleration of a falling body on our moon is 1.62 m/s2 . How many g's is this?
If the acceleration of a test plane is 24.3 m/s2 , how many g's is it?
The pilot of a jet fighter will black out at an acceleration greater than approximately a1...
A fighter pilot will black out an apparent acceleration above 5 g’s: the normal force of the plane on his body of m*5g. If the pilot wishes to perform vertical circular loops at a constant speed of 300 m/s, what is the smallest possible radius of his loops?
When a fighter pilot makes a very quick turn, he experiences a centripetal acceleration. When this acceleration Is greater than about 4 times g the pilot will usually lose consciousness ("black out"). Consider a pilot flying at a speed of 800 m/s who wants to make a very sharp turn. What is the minimum radius of curvature that he can take without blacking out?
