Answer:
r = 0.098m
the radius of the container at this location is 0.098m
Explanation:
Centripetal force F = (mv^2)/r
Radius r = (mv^2)/F
Where;
r = radius
F = centripetal force = 10N
m = mass = 5g = 0.005kg
v = velocity = 14m/s
Substituting the values;
r = (0.005 × 14^2)/10
r = 0.098m
the radius of the container at this location is 0.098m
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of strawberry
m = 5g = 0.005kg
Speed at which it is spun in a circular motion
v = 14m/s
Centripetal force that held it in motion
Fc = 10N
Radius of circular motion r?
Centripetal force is given as
Fc = m•ac
Where m is mass
And ac is centripetal acceleration.
Then, centripetal acceleration is give as
ac = v²/r.
So,
Fc = mv²/r
Making r subject of formulas
r = mv² / Fc
Where,
m is mass m = 0.005kg
v is velocity v = 14m/s
Fc is centripetal force Fc = 10N
Then,
r = mv² / Fc.
r = 0.005 × 14² / 10
r = 0.098m
r = 9.8cm
The radius of the path of circular motion is 9.8cm
