What is the net force acting on a 5.0 kg object that has a velocity of 15 m/s and is moving in a
circle of radius 1.6m?


Sagot :

The answer is going to be: 705N

The net force acting on the object is 703.125 N

In the case of circular motion, there is a centripetal acceleration acting on the object given by:

[tex]a_{r}=\frac{v^{2} }{r}[/tex]

where, v is the velocity of the object = 15 m/s,

and r is the radius of the path = 1.6 m

The net force F:

[tex]F=ma_{r}=m\frac{v^{2} }{r}[/tex]  

[tex]F=5*\frac{15^{2} }{1.6}\\F=703.125 N[/tex] is the net force acting on the object.
