Concept explainers

Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Question

5. While traveling on a curved dusty road, a car gets a centripetal acceleration of 12.5 m/s² If
the radius is 1200 m, what is the tangential velocity of the car?
