Circular Forces And Motion

Question 1

If there is circular motion what is present

Answer 1

Centripetal forces and centrifugal forces

Question 2

What is a centripetal force

Answer 2

It is the force that brings you toward the center of circular motion

Question 3

The equation for centripetal force is

Answer 3

F= M * V^2/r

Question 4

What is centripetal acceleration

Answer 4

It is the acceleration towards the center of circular motion

Question 5

What is tangential acceleration and velocity

Draw it

Answer 5

It is the acceleration tangent to circular motion and the velocity tangent to circular motion

What should be drawn is a line tangent to a circle

Question 6

How do we calculate centripetal force without the equation

Answer 6

We calculate it by taking the vector sum of all forces pointed toward and away from the center of circular motion

Vector sum of all radial forces

Question 7

What is total acceleration of an object in circular motion

Answer 7

It is the vector sum of tangential and centripetal acceleration

Question 8

How do you calculate Centripetal acceleration

Answer 8

V^2/r

Question 9

How do you calculate centripetal acceleration with radial forces

Answer 9

Once you take the vector sum of all forces pointed radially towards or away from the center, divide the vector sum by the mass of the object
