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.

Figure P3.31 represents the total acceleration of a particle moving clockwise in a circle of radius 2.50 m at a certain instant of time. For that instant, find (a) the radial acceleration of the particle, (b) the speed of the particle, and (c) its tangential acceleration.
As their booster rockets separate, Space Shuttle astronauts typically feel accelerations up to 3g, where g = 9.80 m/s2. In their training, astronauts ride in a device where they experience such an acceleration as a centripetal acceleration. Specifically, the astronaut is fastened securely at the end of a mechanical arm, which then turns at constant speed in a horizontal circle. Determine the rotation rate, in revolutions per second, required to give an astronaut a centripetal acceleration of 3.00g while in circular motion with radius 9.45 m.
A person drives a car around a circular, level cloverleaf with a radius of 70 m at a uniform speed of 10 m/s. (a) What is the acceleration of the car? (b) Compare this answer with the acceleration due to gravity as a percentage. Would you be able to sense the cars acceleration if you were riding in it?

A golfer tees off from a location precisely at i = 35.0 north latitude. He hits the ball due south, with range 285 m. The balls initial velocity is at 48.0 above the horizontal. Suppose air resistance is negligible for the golf ball. (a) For how long is the ball in flight? The cup is due south of the golfers location, and the golfer would have a hole-in-one if the Earth were not rotating. The Earths rotation makes the tee move in a circle of radius RE cos i = (6.37 106 m) cos 35.0 as shown in Figure P6.47. The tee completes one revolution each day. (b) Find the eastward speed of the tee relative to the stars. The hole is also moving cast, but it is 285 m farther south and thus at a slightly lower latitude f. Because the hole moves in a slightly larger circle, its speed must he greater than that of the tee. (c) By how much does the holes speed exceed that of the tee? During the time interval the ball is in flight, it moves upward and downward as well as southward with the projectile motion you studied in Chapter 4, but it also moves eastward with the speed you found in part (b). The hole moves to the east at a faster speed, however, pulling ahead of the ball with the relative speed you found in part (c). (d) How far to the west of the hole does the ball land? Figure P6.47
