AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the prevention of blackouts and red-outs in jet fighter pilots during high turns. Trigonometry is essential for calculating the horizontal and vertical components of force and angle. Technicians and scientists employ G-suits to help mitigate the effects of high G-forces on pilots. These suits work by applying pressure to the body, improving blood circulation and reducing the risk of loss of consciousness. Understanding these factors is crucial for pilot safety in high-performance aircraft.

Hi guys! I need your help on the following:
1. what is the formula in getting horizontal and vertical component - force and angle?
2. What remedial emeasures are taken by technicians and scientist to prevent jet fighter pilots from blacking out or experiencing red-outs due to high turns?

1. There is no magical formula, you use trigonometry.
2. G-Suits. This is something easily found by searching on google.
 

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
