Jesse is swinging miguel in a circle at a tangential speed
of 3.50 m/s. if the radius of the circle is 0.600 m and
miguel has a mass of 11.0 kg, what is the centripetal force
on miguel? round to the nearest whole number.

Answer:

225 Newtons

Explanation:

The centripetal force is defined as: [tex]Fc = m \frac{v^2}{R}[/tex]

where m= mass (in our case Miguel's mass)

v is the tangential velocity/speed

and R is the radius of the circular motion.

So to get the centripetal force acting on Miguel, let's make sure that all the quantities are in the appropriate SI units, so the resulting force will be in Newtons.

[tex]Fc = 11 kg \frac{(3.5 m/s)^2}{0.6 m} = 224.5833...[/tex]Newtons

So rounding it to the nearest whole number is = 225 Newtons
