A 3 Kg ball at the end of a string is spun in a circle. If the length of the string is 2 m and the velocity of the ball is 6 m/s, what is the centripetal acceleration of the ball? What is the centripetal force on the ball?

Respuesta :

m is 3kg
r is 2m
v is 6m/s

Fc = mv^2 / r
Fc = (3x6^2)/2 =54

a = v^2/r
a = 6^2 /2 = 18
