Answer

$t=11.9s$

Work Step by Step

We can determine the required time as follows: $tan\theta=\frac{8}{2\pi r}=\frac{8}{2\pi(8)}$ $\implies \theta=9.04^{\circ}$ We know that: $\Sigma F_y=0$ $\implies N-Wcos\theta=0$ $\implies N-800cos 9.04=0$ $\implies N=790.1lb$ The final tangential speed of the car is given as $mr_1v_1+\int_0^t hNsin\theta dt=mrv_t$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $0+\int_0^t 8\times 790.1 sin 9.04 dt=\frac{800}{32.2}\times 8\times 60cos 9.04$ This simplifies to: $t=11.9s$
