Answer in units of N.
part 2 of 2
What is the linear speed of the puck?
Answer in units of m/s.

Respuesta :

The magnitude of the force that maintains circular motion acting on the puck is 15.68 Newtons and the linear speed of the puck is 30.854 m/s.

Uniform circular motion is the motion in a circle at constant speed and Instantaneous velocity is always tangent to the circle. The acceleration, called the centripetal acceleration, points toward the center of the circle.

For an object to be in uniform circular motion, Newton’s 2 nd law requires a net force acting on it. This net force is called centripetal force. Physically, the centripetal force can be the tension in a string, the gravity on a satellite, the normal force of a ring, etc.

Don’t count the centripetal force as an additional force in the free-body-diagram.. It refers to the required net force for circular motion.A centrifuge works by spinning very fast. An object in the tube requires a large centripetal force. When the liquid can’t provide such a large force, the object will move (sink) to the end of the tube.

we have,

Force = mg = 1.6 x 9.8 = 15.68 Newtons

now Force = F = m'v^2/R

15.68 = 0.028 x v^2/1.7

Speed = v = 30.854 m/s
