Seed 25.1

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 find the acceleration by the equation v^2/r = a; therefore, (.3 m/s)^2/.2 m = 0.45 m/s^2

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

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

 We know the acceleration and mass of the steel ball; therefore, the F = ( .11 kg) * (.45 m/s^2) = 0.0495 N is the force of the centripetal motion.
