An increase in the magnitude of which others quantities causes a reduction in centripetal force?
A. Mass
B.Radius of curvature
C. Velocity

Respuesta :

Answer:

F = M v^2 / R = M w^2 R      where w represents the angular frequency

Only 1 / R causes a reduction in centripetal force when increased

(B)   is the answer

Option B. The radius of curvature causes a reduction in centripetal force with an increase in the magnitude.

Centripetal force is a force that acts on the object that moves in a circular motion and is directed towards the center of the circular moving path. The mathematical representation of centripetal force is -

  • [tex]F_{c} = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}[/tex],

Where Fc = the centripetal force,

m = mass of the object,

v = velocity

and r = radius.

From the given explanation above, The centripetal force and radius of curvature are inversely proportional to each other,

that is, Fc = 1/r.

Therefore, an increase in the radius of curvature leads to a reduction in the centripetal force.
