8. A car with a mass of 2,000 kilograms is moving around a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 25 meters per second. The curve has a radius of 80 meters. What is the centripetal force on the car? A. 15,625 N B. 703 N C. 20,250 N D. 625 N
A car with a mass of 2,000 kilograms is moving around a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 25 meters per second. The curve has a radius of 80 meters. [ The centripetal force on the car is 15,625 N.
Solution:
Centripetal Force = [mass * (velocity)^2]/Radius
= [2000 * (25)^2]/80
= (2000 * 625)/80
= 1250000/80
= 15625. ]
