- A mother pushes her child on a swing so that his speed is 9.7 m/s at the lowest point of his path. The swing is attached to a point 2.05 m above the child’s center of mass when the swing is motionless. What is the centripetal acceleration of the child at the low point in m/s2? What is the magnitude of the force that the child exerts on the seat at the lowest point if his mass is 19.5 kg in N?arrow_forwardA 51 kg object is experiencing a net force of 250 N while traveling in a circle of radius 1.5 m. What is its velocity?arrow_forwardA 6.0 x 102 kg car is moving around a circular track that has a radius of 1.00 x 102 m at 20. m/s. How much frictional force is required to keep the car from skidding.arrow_forward
- You are speeding around a turn of radius 30.0 m at a constant speed of 15.0 m/s. Assuming your mass is 75.0 kg, what is the centripetal force on your body? Express your answer in newtons.arrow_forwardOn a typical road, the force of friction during a turn can be up to 195,000 N. If a car has a mass of 1050kg and makes a turn with a radius of 20.0m, how fast can it be going?arrow_forwardA 3.00 kg mass is placed on an incline of 35 degrees. What is the parallel component of the gravitational force directed down the incline?arrow_forward
- A speed skater goes around a turn that has a radius of 31 m. The skater has a speed of 12 m/s and experiences a centripetal force of 450 N. What is the mass of the skater? Number i Units <arrow_forwardThe passengers in a roller coaster feel 42 % heavier than their true weight as the car goes through a loop with a 30 m radius of curvature. What is the car's speed at the bottom of the loop? Use g = 10 N/kg. Hint: How heavy some one feels is another name for normal force. The problem therefore tells you the normal force. If you know weight and normal force, you can determine centripetal acceleration. You can substitute a value for mass if you wish.arrow_forwardA 76kg satellite orbits a distant planet with a radius of 4300km and a period of 280 min. From the radius and period, you calculate the satellite's acceleration to be 0.60m/s^2. What is the gravitational force on the satellite?arrow_forward
