A 76g ball is attached to a string that is 1.5m long. It is spun so that it completes two full rotations every second. What is the centripetal acceleration felt by the ball? m/s2 What is the Force tension on the string? N

The centripetal acceleration = 236.63 m/s²

The force = 17.98 N

Given

mass = 76 g = 0.076 kg

r = 1.5 m

f = 2 rps = 2 rotation per second

Required

The centripetal acceleration

The Force tension

Solution

Centripetal force is a force acting on objects that move in a circle in the direction toward the center of the circle  

F = centripetal force, N  

m = mass, Kg  

v = linear velocity, m / s  

r = radius, m  

The speed that is in the direction of the circle is called linear velocity  

Can be formulated:  

r = circle radius  

f = rotation per second (RPS)  

The linear velocity : 2 x 3.14 x 1.5 x 2 =18.84 m/s

The centripetal acceleration : ac = v²/R = 236.63 m/s²

The force : F = m x ac = 0.076 x 236.63 = 17.98 N

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

we have to simplify it

firstly, we will factor it

now, we can cancel like terms

now, we can combine it

so, we get
