A car is about to enter a circular loop of a roller coaster ride. The total mass of the car is 250 kg and the loop has a radius of 30 m. For safety reason, the normal acceleration in the loop is limited to 60 m/sec2. Determine the speed of the car and the centripetal force acting on the car.

A spherically shaped balloon has a radius of 12.0 m and is filled with helium. The skin and structure of the balloon including the helium have a combined mass of 12, 000. kg. What is the maximum mass of cargo that the balloon can support? Assume the cargo has a high density so that the buoyant force acting on it can be neglected compared to the buoyant force acting on the balloon. You may wish to know that the area of a sphere is 4πr2, the volume of a sphere is 43πr3, the density of air is 1.21 kg/m3, and the density of helium is 0.178 kg/m3. Approximation: you can neglect by the size of the cargo in comparison with the size of the balloon.

You are working during the summer at a company that builds theme parks. The company is designing an electromagnetic propulsion system for a new roller coaster. A model of a substructure of the device appears in the figure below. (i) The rod is of length d = 1.00 m and mass m = 0.600 kg. The rod carries a current I = 100 A in the direction shown and rolls along the rails of length L = 20.0 m without slipping. The entire system of rod and rails is immersed in a uniform downward-directed magnetic field with magnitude B = 2.30 T. The electromagnetic force on the rod is parallel to the rails, causing the rod to roll to the right in the figure. When a full-scale device is produced, this rod will represent the axle of wheels on which the car and its passengers ride. The electromagnetic force on the axle will provide the motion of the car at the beginning of the roller-coaster ride. Your supervisor wants to test the substructure in the figure in a flat outdoor area on the grounds of the company. By projecting the rod from the rails in a horizontal direction from a height h = 2.20 m, the projection speed can be determined from how far from the ends of the rails the rod hits the ground. Your supervisor asks you to determine the length of the outdoor area needed to test the device. (Determine the total horizontal distance, in m, from the initial position of the rod on the tracks to the final position of the rod where it lands on the ground.) m
