More Physics help. Thanks to everyone?
An airplane travels 180 m/s as it makes a
horizontal circular turn which has a(n) 2.2 km
radius.
What is the magnitude of the resultant
force on the 100 kg pilot of this airplane?
Answer in units of kN.
I dont know where to start
oh I see and it did help. I also just found it in my book thanks!. how do I choose as the best answer?

the force is calculated by:
F = m * a
for turning in a circle, the centripetal acceleration is:
a = v^2/r
F = 100 kg * (180 m/s) ^2 / 2200 m
F = 1.472 kN
Let me know if this helps by choosing this as the best answer.
