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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

magnitude is v^2/r so 30^2/20 = 45

toward the center

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

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

fnet = m * a

fnet = .11 * 45

fet = 4.95 N

in a circular pattern is the direction
