Question

If a body f mass 5kg is moving in a circle of radius 1m with an angular velocity of 2rad/s, then the centripetal force will be

Answers

GPT 3.5
F = m * v^2 / r

Given:
m = 5kg
r = 1m
v = r * ω = 1m * 2 rad/s = 2m/s

F = 5kg * (2m/s)^2 / 1m
F = 5kg * 4m^2/s^2 / 1m
F = 20 N

Therefore, the centripetal force acting on the body is 20N.
