1. A 30-kg child is spinning horizontally in a ride with a

centripetal acceleration of 10 m/s/s. How many newtons

of centripetal force are acting on her?

Respuesta :

Answer:

300newtons of centripetal force

Explanation:

Force is mathematically expressed as mass×acceleration due to gravity

Mass of child equals 30kg

Acceleration due to gravity equals 10m/s²

Force is unknown so we restate formula & fix in the quantities

∴Force equals mass×acceleration due to gravity

(representing force by f,mass by m & acceleration...gravity by g)not always necessary

So f equals m×g(fix in values)

f equals 30kg×10m/s²

f equals 300newtons

∴The centripetal force acting on her is 300newtons
