To find the radius of the loop executed by the aircraft, we can use the concept of centripetal force and the banking angle of the aircraft. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Convert the speed from km/h to m/s The speed of the aircraft is given as \(720 \, \text{km/h}\). To convert this to meters per second (m/s), we can use the conversion factor \(1 \, \text{km/h} = \frac{1}{3.6} \, \text{m/s}\). \[ V = 720 \, \text{km/h} \times \frac{1}{3.6} \approx 200 \, \text{m/s} \] ...
