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.

A player using a cue accelerates a shuffleboard disk at a constant 7.3m/s2 from rest for 0.65sec. At this point the disk loses contact with the cue and slows down at a constant rate of 2.3 m/s2 until it stops. What is the total distance traversed by the disk?
The instantaneous speed of a particle moving along one straight line isv(t) = ate−5t, where the speed v is measured in meters per second, the time t is measured in seconds, and the magnitude of the constant a is measured in meters per second squared. What is its maximum speed, expressed as a multiple of a? (Do not include units in your answer.)
1. Andrew and Kevin decide to try out the physics ideas that they are learning and take their baseball pitching machine and a baseball to a 96 feet tall local building. Based on what they have learned the height, s(t), of a baseball, thrown straight up with an initial speed of 80 feet per second from a rooftop 96 feet high is s(t)=-16t^2+80t+96 where t is the elapsed time that the baseball is in the air. The baseball that is pitched miss the rooftop on their way down and eventually strike the ground. a) What is the average velocity of a baseball from t=0 to t=2 seconds? b) What is the velocity of the baseball 2 seconds after it is thrown? c) After how many seconds will the velocity of the baseball reach zero? d) What is the velocity of the baseball t seconds after it is thrown? e) What is the velocity of the baseball as it passes the roof top on the way down?
A spaceship ferrying workers to Moon Base I takes a straight-line path from the earth to the moon, a distance of 384,000km. Suppose the spaceship starts from rest and accelerates at 20.0 m/s^2 for the first 15.0 min of the trip, and then travels at constant speeduntil the last 15.0 min, when it slows down at a rate of 20.0 m/s^2 , just coming to rest as it reaches the moon. (a) What fraction of the total distance is traveled at constant speed? (b) What total time is required for the trip?
A Ford Territory and a Montero Sport are traveling in the same direction at 60.0 kph on a straight highway, parallel to each other, and the Territory is ahead of Montero by 248,90 kph. At a certain time, Territory decelerates uniformly at 2.50 m/s2, whereas the Montero accelerates uniformly at 2.0 m/s2. At what distance measured from the initial position of Montero will it overtake Ford Territory.

In April 1974, Steve Prefontaine completed a 10.0 km race in a time of 27 min, 43.6 s. Suppose "Pre" was at the 8.41 km mark at a time of 25.0 min. If he accelerated for 60 s and then maintained his increased speed for the remainder of the race, calculate his acceleration over the 60 s interval. Assume his instantaneous speed at the 8.41 km8.41 km mark was the same as his overall average speed up to that time. acceleration: ?
Playing jackstone as a kid, you discovered that there is a certain time before the rubber ball falls and you took advantage of this when picking up the stars on the floor.

My pug/bulldog mix, Georgia, who is blind and deaf, gets a whiff of her dinner. As soon as it registers to her that it's dinnertime, she runs 4.12 meters from the middle of our living room to our kitchen, where she is satiated with her grub. If it takes her 4.45 s to get to the kitchen, what was her speed in m/s to the nearest hundredth?
A mischievous 1.1-meter boy stands on a bridge somewhere to drop a stone to passing cars. The height of the bridge is 6.2 meters and the distance between his head and shoulder is 10.0 inches. He drops the stone with his arm positioned horizontal to his shoulder while the car was 7.1 meters away. What must have been the velocity of the car if the stone hit it with a perfect timing?
A drag racer accelerates from rest at an average rate of +13.2 m/s2 for a distance of 100. m. The driver coasts for 0.500 seconds and then uses the brakes and parachute to decelerate until the end of the track. If the total length of the track is 180. m, what minimum deceleration rate must the racer have in order to stop prior to the end of the track?
In World War II, there were several reported cases of airmen who jumped from their flaming airplanes with no parachute to escape certain death. Some fell about 20,000 feet (6000 m), and some of them survived, with few life-threatening injuries. For these lucky pilots, the tree branches and snow drifts on the ground allowed their deceleration to be relatively small. If we assume that a pilot's speed upon impact was 123 mph (54 m/s), then what was his deceleration? Assume that the trees and snow stopped him over a distance of 3.0 m.
