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

Why is the following situation impossible? A space station shaped like a giant wheel has a radius of r = 100 m and a moment of inertia of 5.00 108 kg m2. A crew of 150 people of average mass 65.0 kg is living on the rim, and the stations rotation causes the crew to experience an apparent free-fall acceleration of g (Fig. P10.52). A research technician is assigned to perform an experiment in which a ball is dropped at the rim of the station every 15 minutes and the time interval for the ball to drop a given distance is measured as a test to make sure the apparent value of g is correctly maintained. One evening, 100 average people move to the center of the station for a union meeting. The research technician, who has already been performing his experiment for an hour before the meeting, is disappointed that he cannot attend the meeting, and his mood sours even further by his boring experiment in which every time interval for the dropped ball is identical for the entire evening.
A disk 8.00 cm in radius rotates at a constant rate of 1200 rev/min about its central axis. Determine (a) its angular speed in radians per second, (b) the tangential speed at a point 3.00 cm from its center, (c) the radial acceleration of a point on the rim, and (d) the total distance a point on the rim moves in 2.00 s.
Suppose a piece of dust has fallen on a CD. If the spin rate of the CD is 500 rpm, and the piece of dust is 4.3 cm from the center, what is the total distance traveled by the dust in 3 minutes? (Ignore accelerations due to getting the CD rotating.)
A door in a hospital has a pneumatic closer that pulls the door shut such that the doorknob moves with constant speed over most of its path. In this part of its motion, (a) does the doorknob experience a centripetal acceleration? (b) Does it experience a tangential acceleration?
A single bead can slide with negligible friction on a stiff wire that has been bent into a circular loop of radius 15.0 cm as shown in Figure P5.59. The circle is always in a vertical plane and rotates steadily about its vertical diameter with a period of 0.450 s. The position of the bead is described by the angle θ that the radial line, from the center of the loop to the bead, makes with the vertical. (a) At what angle up from the bottom of the circle can the bead stay motionless relative to the turning circle? (b) What If ? Repeat the problem, this time taking the period of the circle’s rotation as 0.850 s. (c) Describe how the solution to part (b) is different from the solution to part (a). (d) For any period or loop size, is there always an angle at which the bead can stand still relative to the loop? (e) Are there ever more than two angles? Arnold Arons suggested the idea for this problem. Figure P5.59

A skateboarder is attempting to make a circular arc of radius r = 19 m in a parking lot. The total mass of the skateboard and skateboarder is m = 98 kg. The coefficient of static friction between the surface of the parking lot and the wheels of the skateboard is μs = 0.66. The maximum speed he can go without slipping is 11.09 m/s. He speeds up very slightly and begins to slide. The coefficient of kinetic friction is μk = 0.11. What is the new magnitude of his radial acceleration in m/s2?
A block of mass m is placed on a rough surface that rotates at 15 rpm. If the body has a distance of 146 cm from the vertical rotation axis, how large must the friction coefficient be so that the body remains at rest?
Starting from a standstill, a windmill-style softball pitcher executed a pitch in 0.6 s. If her pitching arm is 0.75 m long and the tangential ball speed is 25 m/s, what is the magnitude of the total acceleration on the ball at this point?
In a home laundry dryer, a cylindrical tub containing wet clothes is rotated steadily about a horizontal axis, as shown in Figure P7.61. So that the clothes will dry uniformly, they are made to tumble. The rate of rotation of the smooth-walled tub is chosen so that a small piece of cloth will lose contact with the tub when the cloth is at an angle of0 = 68.0° above the horizontal. If the radius of the tub is r = 0.330 m, what rate of revolution is needed in revolutions per second?
