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

a = v^2 / r toward the center

a = (30 cm/s)^2 / 20 cm = 45 cm/s^2

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

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

Fcent = Fnet

Fcent = m * a = .110kg * .45 m/s^2 = .0495 N towards the center
