Physics Two Dimensional Motion Question 267
Question: An aircraft executes a horizontal loop with a speed of 150 m/s with its, wings banked at an angle of $ 12^{o} $ . The radius of the loop is $ (g=10,,m/s^{2}) $
[Pb. PET 2001]
Options:
A) 10.6 km
B)9.6 km
C) 7.4 km
D)5.8 km
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
The angle of banking, $ \tan \theta =\frac{v^{2}}{rg} $
Therefore $ \tan 12{}^\circ =\frac{{{(150)}^{2}}}{r\times 10} $
Therefore $ r=10.6\times 10^{3},m=10.6,km $
