length of 4.48 m around a cir? For a scene in a movie, a stunt driver drives a 2.00 103 kg pickup truck with a length of 4.48 m around a circular curve with a radius of curvature of 0.333 km (Fig. 7.29). The truck is to curve off the road, jump across a gully 10.0 m wide, and land on the other side 2.96 m below the initial side. What is the minimum centripetal acceleration the truck must have in going around the circular curve to clear the gully and land on the other side?
