Question:
A polisher is started so that the fleece along the circumference undergoes a constant tangential acceleration of 4 m/s2. Three seconds after a polisher is started from rest, small tufts of fleece from along the circumference of the 225-mm-diameter polishing pad are observed to fly free of the pad. At this instant, determine
(a) The speed v of a tuft as it leaves the pad,
(b) The magnitude of the force required to free a tuft if the average mass of a tuft is 1.6 mg.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
