Tangential and centripetal acceleration at the top of loop


A motorcycle can accelerate at a rate of 5.2 m/s2. The rider plans to take the bike on a loop de loop that has a radius of 10 meters. The mass of the motorcycle and rider 300 kg.

A.) What is the minimum velocity needed at the top so that the rider completes the loop successfully?

B.) Find the tangential and centripetal acceleration at the top of the loop using the velocity from part A.
