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

•a = (30 cm/s)^2 / 20cm = 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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

F_cent = m * a_Cent = .110kg * .45 m/s^2 = 49.5 kg * m/ s^2 = 49.5 N

@&

That would be .0495 N.
