A body of mass 2 kg moves in a horizontal circular path of radius 5 m. In an instant its speed is 2√5 m/s and is increasing at the rate of 3 m/s². The magnitude of the force acting on the body at the instant is:
a. 6 N
b. 8 N
c. 14 N
d. 10 N


Sagot :

Answer: a.6N

Explanation: Force = mass × acceleration

.                     Force  =  2kg×3m/s^

.                     Force  = 6 kgm/s^2

.                     Force  = 6
