Centripetal Acceleration & Force

A vehicle of mass 200 kg200\text{ kg} is moving along a levelled curved road of radius 70 m70\text{ m} with angular velocity of 0.2 rad/s0.2\text{ rad/s}. The centripetal force acting on the vehicle is:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. F=mω2rF = m\omega^2 r
  2. F=200×(0.2)2×70=200×0.04×70F = 200 \times (0.2)^2 \times 70 = 200 \times 0.04 \times 70
  3. F=560 NF = 560\text{ N}
  4. So the answer is (a) 560 N560\text{ N}.
