A steel ball of mass 110 grams moves with a speed of 30 cm / second around a circle of radius 20 cm.

• What are the magnitude and direction of the centripetal acceleration of the ball?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

We can first find the Force by multiplying m*a to get: 3300N.

The mass is 110 grams. You don't know the acceleration.

The units of your apparent calculation would be g cm / second, which is not a unit for force. You appear to have calculated the momentum.

We can then find the x by: 3300cos(20)=3101

Y= 3300sin(20)= 1129

The magnitude is: sqrt( 3301^2+1129^2)= 3300

The direction is: artan(1129/3101)= 20degrees, we then add 180 to get 190 degrees

• What is the magnitude and direction of the centripetal force required to keep it moving around this circle?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

The same magnitude and direction found in the first question should allow the ball to keep moving.
