    Solve Dynamics Problem - Find Radius of Curvature of Track

    I have a homework problem that I'm having absolute difficulty with. The problem reads, A train is running smoothly along a curved track at the rate of 50 m/s. A passenger standing on a set of scales observes that his weight is 10% greater than when the train is at rest. The track is banked so...
