Respuesta :
If you swing a bucket of water fast enough in a vertical circle, at the highest point the water does not spill out. This happens because an outward force balances the pull of gravity on the water - True
What is centripetal force?
- It is the force applied to a body that is rotating in a circle and is pointed in the direction of the body's center.
- Centripetal force formula:
F = mv^2/r
This experiment demonstrates Newton's first law of motion, which states that objects either remain still or move straight ahead. Inertia is the name for this quality. Force is required to cause an object to rotate in a circle.
The water inside the pail pulls on your arm as you swing it back and forth because it wants to keep moving in a straight line while you want it to go in a circle. The water pushes against the bottom of the bucket as you hold on to prevent it from flying away. The water pushes more forcefully against the bottom of the pail as you swing higher and higher. However, gravity tries to remove the water from the bucket when you turn it upside down. Ultimately, whichever force—gravity or centripetal—is stronger wins. The water will remain in the pail as long as you swing the bucket quickly enough for centripetal force—the force of the water pressing against the bottom of the bucket—to outweigh gravity.
Hence, the correct answer is True.
