a 45 kg boy sits on a horse on a carousel 5.0 m from the center of the circle. he makes a revolution every 8.0 s.
calculate his speed.
what is centripetal force acting on the boy?​


Sagot :

Answer:

2.9m/s and 140N

Explanation:

For speed convert rev/s to m/s

(Rev/8s)=(2π/8)(5m) = 3.9m/s

For Centripetal Force

Fc = (ac)(m) = (v^2/r)(m) = [(3.9m/s)^2/(5.0m)][45kg] = 140N

Answers go to two significant figures.
