An airplane is traveling at 150 m/s in level flight. If the airplane is to make a change in direction, it must travel in a horizontal curved path. To fly in the curved path, the pilot banks the airplane at an angle such that the lift has a horizontal component that provides the horizontal centripetal acceleration to move in a horizontal circular path. If the airplane is banked at an angle of 12.0 degrees, then the radius of curvature of the curved path of the airplane is
