Correct answer: C. Option C

  • A. Option A
  • B. Option B
  • C. Option C
  • D. Option D

Explanation

Explanation: Calculation of Centripetal Force The product of mass (kg) and tangential velocity (m/sec) squared, divided by the radius (m), is the formula of centripetal force. Centripetal force can be mathematically it is written as: F = mv2/r Where, F represents the centripetal force, m = mass of the object, v = speed or velocity of the object and r = radius.

About Force and Motion

Displacement, velocity and acceleration describe motion, including the horizontal and vertical components of projectile motion. The chapter connects these quantities with Newton's laws, momentum and impulse, then applies conservation of momentum to collisions, distinguishing elastic collisions from inelastic ones.
