We can find the force by using the following formula;
N = ma +  mg
Fa = ma = 76 x 1.2 = 91.2
Fg = mg = 76 x 9.8 = 744.8
N = 91.2 + 744.8 = 836
So, the force is 836 N.

give an example of situation in which an automobile driver can have a centripetal acceleration but no tangential speed
Mars2501 [29]

There is no need for tangential acceleration when moving in a circle at a constant speed.

<h3>What is centripetal acceleration?</h3>

centripetal acceleration refers to the speed at which a body moves through a circle. Due to the fact that velocity is a vector quantity (i.e., it has both a magnitude, the speed, and a direction), when a body travels in a circle, its direction is constantly changing, which causes a change in velocity, which results in an acceleration.

<h3>Which is an example of centripetal acceleration?</h3>

Centripetal acceleration occurs when you spin a ball on a string above your head. A car experiences centripetal acceleration when it is being driven in a circle. Additionally, a satellite in orbit around the Earth experiences centripetal acceleration.

Suppose you are standing at the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, the place on the earth's surface that compasses point to
Brut [27]

Answer:

It would point up.

Explanation:

Since I am at the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, the place on the earth's surface that compasses point toward, the north pole of the compass would also point towards the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, since all other compasses point toward there.

Since the compass is free to swivel in any direction, the compass would point up, since it is at the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, the place on the earth's surface that compasses point toward.

So, the compass would point up.
