Question on: JAMB Physics - 2011

An object of mass 2 kg moves with a velocity of 10 ms1 round at circle of radius 4 m. Calculate the centripetal force on the object

A
25 N
B
100 N
C
50 N
D
40 N
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: C

Centripetal force,

F = ( \frac{mv^2}{r} )

= ( \frac{2 \times 10^2}{4} )

= ( \frac{200}{4} )= 50N
