Attempt 1: Used the maximum height that it can travel to find the time it would take to cross the gulch (t = 0.77 secs). Divided that by distance to get a velocity (12.9). Plugged that into the formula for centripetal acceleration and got .49 which is wrong.
Homework Statement
For a scene in a movie, a stunt driver drives a 1.20✕ 103 kg pickup truck with a length of 4.65 m around a circular curve with a radius of curvature of 0.333 km (Fig. 7.29). The truck is to curve off the road, jump across a gully 10.0 m wide, and land on the other side 2.96 m...
Homework Statement
A block of mass m rests on a horizontal table. The block is pulled by a massless rope with a force F at an angle θ. The coefficient of static friction is 0.60. The minimum value of the force needed to move the block depends on the angle θ
