If you know the centripetal force acting on an object moving in a circle, which equation will allow you to calculate the velocity of the object

If you know the centripetal force acting on an object moving in a circle which equation will allow you to calculate the velocity of the object class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

A, sqrt(Fr/m)

Explanation:

We know that force is equal to mass times acceleration. Centriptial acceleration is v^2/r. Therefore:

[tex]F= m*a\\a = \frac{v^2}{r}\\ F= m*\frac{v^2}{r}\\\frac{F*r}{m}= v^2\\ v= \sqrt{\frac{F*r}{m}}[/tex]

That's how I got A.

Answer:

The velocity of the object in circular motion, [tex]v=\sqrt{\dfrac{F_cr}{m}}[/tex]

Explanation:

The second law of motion given the magnitude of force acting on an object. It is equal to the product of its mass and acceleration i.e.

[tex]F=m\times a[/tex]..........(1)

In a circular path the acceleration of the object is called centripetal acceleration, [tex]a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}[/tex]

Equation (1) becomes,

[tex]F=m\times \dfrac{v^2}{r}[/tex]

We know that, in circular motion the force acting on the object is centripetal force. The formula for centripetal force is given by :

[tex]F_c=m\times \dfrac{v^2}{r}[/tex]

[tex]v=\sqrt{\dfrac{F_cr}{m}}[/tex]

So, the correct option is (a). Hence, this is the required solution.
