What is the minimum radius of curvature

Reference no: EM13334766

When a fighter pilot makes a very quick turn, he experiences a centripetal acceleration. When this acceleration is greater than about 10 × g the pilot will usually lose consciousness ("black out"). Consider a pilot flying at a speed of 990 m/s who wants to make a very sharp turn. What is the minimum radius of curvature that he can take without blacking out?
