Aspecial electronic sensor is embedded in the seat of a car that takes riders around a circular loop-the-loop ride at an amusement park. the sensor measures the magnitude of the normal force that the seat exerts on a rider. the loop-the-loop ride is in the vertical plane and its radius is 23 m. sitting on the seat before the ride starts, a rider is level and stationary, and the electronic sensor reads 740 n. at the top of the loop, the rider is upside down and moving, and the sensor reads 370 n. what is the speed of the rider at the top of the loop?

Asheet of steel 1.5 mm thick has nitrogen atmospheres on both sides at 1200oc and is permitted to achieve a steady-state diffusion condition. the diffusion coefficient for nitrogen in steel at this temperature is 6 x 10- 11 m2 /s, and the diffusion flux is found to be 1.2 x 10-7 kg/m2 -s. also, it is known that the concentration of nitrogen in the steel at the high-pressure surface is 4 kg/m3 . how far into the sheet from this high-pressure side will the concentration be 2.0 kg/m3 ? assume a linear concentration profile.
