Answer:
The centripetal acceleration for the first radius; 2.0 m = 50 m/s²
The centripetal acceleration for the second radius; 4.0 m = 25 m/s²
The centripetal acceleration for the third radius; 6.0 m = 16.67 m/s²
The centripetal acceleration for the fourth radius; 8.0 m = 12.5 m/s²
The centripetal acceleration for the fifth radius; 10.0 m = 10 m/s²
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the object, m = 1 kg
velocity of the object, v = 10 m/s
different values of the radius, 2.0 m 4.0 m 6.0 m 8.0 m 10.0 m
The centripetal acceleration for the first radius; 2.0 m
[tex]a_c = \frac{v^2}{r} \\\\a_c_1= \frac{(10)^2}{2} \\\\a_c_1= 50 \ m/s^2[/tex]
The centripetal acceleration for the second radius; 4.0 m
[tex]a_c_2= \frac{(10)^2}{4} \\\\a_c_2= 25 \ m/s^2[/tex]
The centripetal acceleration for the third radius; 6.0 m
[tex]a_c_3= \frac{(10)^2}{6} \\\\a_c_3= 16.67 \ m/s^2[/tex]
The centripetal acceleration for the fourth radius; 8.0 m
[tex]a_c_4= \frac{(10)^2}{8} \\\\a_c_4= 12.5 \ m/s^2[/tex]
The centripetal acceleration for the fifth radius; 10.0 m
[tex]a_c_5= \frac{(10)^2}{10} \\\\a_c_5= 10 \ m/s^2[/tex]
