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 N is the answer. Glad I could help

Answer:

Explanation:

When an object is moving around a circular path with a uniform speed the motion os said to be uniform cicular motion. It is the example of accelerated motion as the direction of motion keeps on changing every instant.

When a body is in uniform circular motion, it experiences a force towards the centre of circular path, this force is called centripetal force.

The formula of centripetal force is given by

F = mv^2 / r

Where m is the mass of body, V be the speed of body and R be the radius of circular path

F = 11 × 3.5 × 3.5 / 0.6

F = 224.58 N
