Concept explainers

Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Question

5. A stand holds two white balls. At the same instance, one ball is
dropped straight down, the other ball is shot straight out. Which ball
will hit the ground first? (neglect air resistance)
6. Which angle produces the greatest range if the projectile has the same
speed?
7. What factor(s) affect/s how far a projectile will land?
8. Describe the centripetal acceleration.
