1.) A 150 kg. truck is moving in a circular path whose radius of 9.2 m. What is the centripetal force of the truck if it's velocity is 20 m/s?
2.) What is the acceleration of 880 kg car moving in a circular oval with a force of acceleration equal to 28,160 N?
3.) What is the centripetal acceleration of a roller coaster moving in a 12 m radius with a velocity of 20 m/s?
Answers & Comments
Answer:
1. 326 m/s
2. 0.03125 m/s
3. 1.666... m/s
Explanation:
1. To calculate centripetal force the formula is:
mass × velocity² /radius
2. To calculate acceleration the formula is:
a=v(or mass) /t (or net force)
3. To calculate the centripetal acceleration the formula is:
ac=v^2/r
