1. A runner moving at a speed of 8.8 m/s rounds a bend with a radius of 25 m. What is the centripetal acceleration of the runner? 2. Racing on a flat track, a car takes 5.5 s to round a curve with a radius of 56 m. What is the centripetal acceleration of the car? 3. A physics student swings a small rubber ball attached to a string over her head in a horizontal, circular path. The piece of string is 2.0 meters long and the ball makes 2 revolutions per second. What is the ball's centripetal acceleration? Ax 2r v = = 2rf At T Centripetal Acceleration 122 Fnet c mac m r 1 T(period) f (frequency) Centripetal Force 1. A.013-kg rubber stopper is attached to a 0.93-m string. The stopper is swung in a horizontal circle, making one revolution in 0.75 s. a) Find the tension force exerted by the string on the stopper? b) If the mass is doubled, but all other quantities remain the same, what would be the effect on the velocity, acceleration and force? c) If the radius is doubled, but all other quantities remain the same, what would be the effect on the velocity, acceleration, and force? d) If the period of revolution is half as large, but all other quantities remain the same, what would be the effect on the velocity, acceleration and force? 2. A 200 kg car moving at 10 m/s is going around a circular track with a radius of 25m. a) What is the cars centripetal acceleration? b) What agent exerts a force on the car? c) Calculate a numeric value for this force. 3.
