Question

Calculate the centripetal force on a 2000-kg automobile rounding a curve of 160 m radius at a speed
of 45 km/h.

Definition Definition Force on a body along the radial direction. Centripetal force is responsible for the circular motion of a body. The magnitude of centripetal force is given by F C = m v 2 r m = mass of the body in the circular motion v = tangential velocity of the body r = radius of the circular path
