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

A car rounds a level (unbanked) curve with a radius of 95 m without skidding at a speed of
25 m/s. What is the smallest possible coefficient of friction between the tires and the ground?
Is the friction static or kinetic? Include a force (or free body) diagram of the situation.

A cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 5.40 m from the center of the ride. Then the operator turns on the ride and brings it up to its proper tuning rate of one complete revolution every 6.00 s. What is the least coefficient of static friction between the cat and the merry-go-round that will allow the cat to stay in place when it is to the right of the center of the ride, without sliding? The three forces acting on the cat must be identified. Which forces act on the cat? Gravitational force Static frictional force Tension Kinetic frictional force Normal force

In a recent study of how mice negotiate turns, the mice ran BIO around a circular 90° turn on a track with a radius of 0.15 m. The maximum speed measured for a mouse (mass = 18.5 g) running around this turn was 1.29 m/s. What is the minimum coefficient of friction between the track and the mouse's feet that would allow a turn at this speed?

A car is safely negotiating an unbanked circular turn at a speed of 29 m/s. The road is dry, and the maximum static frictional force acts on the tires. Suddenly a long wet patch in the road decreases the maximum static frictional force to one- sixth of its dry-road value. If the car is to continue safely around the curve, to what speed must the driver slow the car? m/s
