FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is centripetal force?
Back
Centripetal force is the net force that acts on an object moving in a circular path, directed towards the center of the circle.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How is centripetal force calculated?
Back
Centripetal force (Fc) can be calculated using the formula: Fc = (mv^2)/r, where m is mass, v is tangential speed, and r is the radius of the circular path.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What happens to centripetal force if the radius of the circular path increases while mass and speed remain constant?
Back
If the radius increases, the centripetal force decreases.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Define tangential speed.
Back
Tangential speed is the linear speed of an object moving along a circular path, measured at a point tangent to the circle.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the relationship between tangential speed and rotational speed?
Back
As tangential speed increases, rotational speed also increases, assuming the radius remains constant.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is centripetal acceleration?
Back
Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration experienced by an object moving in a circular path, directed towards the center of the circle.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How is centripetal acceleration calculated?
Back
Centripetal acceleration (ac) can be calculated using the formula: ac = v^2/r, where v is tangential speed and r is the radius.
