Question
An aircraft executes a horizontal loop with a speed of 150 m/s with its wings banked at an angle of 12o the radius of the loop is (g = 10m/ s2)
Options
A.10.6km
B.9.6km
C.7.4km
D.5.8km
Solution
Using the relation for the radius (r) of loop
tan θ =
or tan 12o =
r =
= 10.6 × 103 m = 10.6km
tan θ =

or tan 12o =

r =
= 10.6 × 103 m = 10.6kmCreate a free account to view solution
