A woodpeckers brain is specially protected from large decelerations by tendon-like attachments inside the skull. While pecking a tree, the woodpeckers head comes to a stop from an inital velocity of 1 m/s in only 1.5 mm.  A) Find the acceleration of the woodpeckers head. B) The tendons cradling the brain stretch, increaing the stopping distance for the brain to 5 mm. What is the brain's acceleration? C) A woodpecker's brain has a mass of about 2 g. What force is exerted on the tendons holding the brain and how does it compare to a 170 g woodpecker's body weight?

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.
