Determine the centripetal force on a vehicle rounding a circular curve with a radius of 80 m at a constant speed of 90 km/h if the vehicle's mass is 2,000 kg. (Hint: First express the velocity in meters per second)

Verified Answer :

Mass of the vehicle = 2000 kg
Velocity of the vehicle = 90 km/hr
                                   = 25 m/s
Radius of the curve = 80 m
Then
Centripetal force = [2000 (25)^2]/80
                            = (2000 625)/80
                            = 15625 kg m/s
                            = 15625 Newton second
