Forces cause linear acceleration
F=ma
Torques cause rotary acceleration
T=momentInertia*angular acceleration
where Torque=force*distance from piviot point
moment of inertia, for single point masses, Inertia=mass*radius^2
angular acceleration in radius/sec^2
If I solved for centripetal acceleration how can you determine the magnitude of the force required to produce this centripetal acceleration? Next step please....
v=15m/s
r=35m
m=1300 kg
15 squared/35m=225/35= 6.43m/s squared
