Question

A race car rounds a curve at 60 m/s. The radius of the curve is 380 m and the car's mass is 1,883 kg. What is the centripetal force acting on the car?

Calculate answer to one decimal.

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
