s) A body of mass 2 kilograms moves on a circle of radius 3 meters, making one revolution every 5 seconds. Find the magnitude of the centripetal force acting on the body. (Be sure to correctly state the units of the force

Respuesta :

Answer:

Centripetal force acting on the body = 9.47 N

Explanation:

Mass of body, m = 2 kg

Radius, r = 3 m

It makes one revolution in 5 seconds.

        Period, T = 5 s

        [tex]\texttt{Angular velocity, }\omega =\frac{2\pi }{T}=\frac{2\pi }{5}=1.256rad/s[/tex]

Centripetal force, F = mrω²

                        F = 2 x 3 x 1.256² = 9.47 N

Centripetal force acting on the body = 9.47 N
