Q1// The small 0.

6-kg block slides with a small amount of friction on the circular path of
radius 3 m in the vertical plane. If the speed of the block is 5 m/s as it passes point A and
4 m/s as it passes point B, determine the normal force exerted on the block by the
surface at each of these two locations.

Q2// A 2-lb slider is propelled upward at A along the fixed curved bar which lies in a
vertical plane. If the slider is observed to have a speed of 10 ft/sec as it passes position B,
determine (a) the magnitude N of the force exerted by the fixed rod on the slider and (b)
the rate at which the speed of the slider is decreasing. Assume that friction is negligible.
Q3// A pilot flies an airplane at a constant speed of 600 km/h in the vertical circle of radius
1000 m. Calculate the force exerted by the seat on the 90-kg pilot at point A and at point
B.

Q4// Determine the proper bank angle for the airplane flying at 400 mi/hr and making a
turn of 2-mile radius. Note that the force exerted by the air is normal to the supporting
wing surface.
Q5// If the 2kg block passes over the top B of the circular portion of the path with a
speed of 3.5 m/s, calculate the magnitude NB of the normal force exerted by the path on
the block. Determine the maximum speed y which the block can have at A without losing
contact with the path.
