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

100%

A 15.0 g solution in a test tube is placed in a centrifuge that spins at a rate of 2.50x10^2 Hz .
What is the centripetal force exerted on the solution if the radius of the circular motion is 12.0 cm?

Definition Definition Force on a body along the radial direction. Centripetal force is responsible for the circular motion of a body. The magnitude of centripetal force is given by F C = m v 2 r m = mass of the body in the circular motion v = tangential velocity of the body r = radius of the circular path
