Problem: When a fighter pilot makes a very quick turn, he experiences a centripetal acceleration. When this acceleration is greater than about 8 cross product g, the pilot will usually lose consciousness ("black out"). Consider a pilot flying at a speed of 860 m/s (about 1924 mi/h) who wants to make a very sharp turn.

Part A: What is the minimum radius of curvature he can take without blacking out?

________km

I need help to find the minimum radius of curvature he can take without blacking out.
