An object of mass 10 kg is in a circular orbit of radius 10 m at a
velocity of 10 m/s. Calculate the centripetal force (in N) required
to maintain this orbit.

Respuesta :

A :-) F = mv^2 by t
Given - m = 10 kg
r = 10 m
v = 10 m/s
Solution -
F = mv^2 by t
F = 10 x 10^2 by 10
F = 10 x 100 by 10
( cut 10 and 10 because 10 x 1 = 10 )
F = 100 N

.:. The centripetal force is 100 N

We have that for the Question "Calculate the centripetal force (in N) required  to maintain this orbit." it can be said that  the centripetal force (in N) required  to maintain this orbit is

F=62.5N

From the question we are told

An object of mass 10 kg is in a circular orbit of radius 10 m at a

velocity of 10 m/s.

Calculate the centripetal force (in N) required  to maintain this orbit.

Generally the equation for the Centripetal force  is mathematically given as

[tex]F=\frac{mv^2}{r}\\\\F=\frac{5*10^2}{8}[/tex]

F=62.5N

Therefore

the centripetal force (in N) required  to maintain this orbit is

F=62.5N
