Time taken to complete on complete circle = 2.3 seconds

Radius of circle (r) = 0.85 (length of each arm)

Speed of skaters = \frac{Distance}{time}

Speed = \frac{2\pi r}{t}

Speed = \frac{2 \times 3.14 \times 0.85}{2.3}

Speed (v) = 2.32 m/s

Let the force applied by one skater on the other be F

F(net) = centripetal force

F = \frac{mv^2}{r}

F = \frac{65 \times 2.32^2}{0.85}

F = 411.59 Newtons

Hence, the force applied by each skater on the other is: F = 411.59 Newtons

We have to
 m = 65 kg
 r = 0.85 m
 t = 2.3 s
 The perimeter of the circle is given by:
 P = 2 * pi * r
 P = 2 * pi * (0.85 m)
 P = 5.34 m
 Then, by definition, the distance equals the speed by time:
 d = v * t
 v = d / t
 v = (5.34 m) / (2.3 s)
 v = 2.32 m / s
 Then, to find the radial acceleration, we must use the speed found and the radius of the circle:
 a = v ^ 2 / r
 a = (2.32 m / s) ^ 2 / (0.85 m)
 a = (5.38 m ^ 2 / s ^ 2) / (0.85 m)
 a = 6.32 m / s ^ 2
 Finally, we have that by definition the force is equal to the mass by acceleration:
 F = m * a
 F = (65 kg) * (6.32 m / s ^ 2)
 F = 410.8 N
 answer
 F = 410.8 N

Answer:

<h3> 1.40625m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion expressed as v = u+gt where;

v is the  final velocity of the ball

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken

Given

u = 9m/s

v = 0m/s

t = 6.4s

Required

acceleration due to gravity g

Since the rock is thrown up, g will be a negative value.

v = u+(-g)t

0 = 9-6.4g

-9 = -6.4g

6.4g = 9

divide both sides by 6.4

6.4g/6.4 = 9/6.4

g = 1.40625m/s²

Hence the acceleration due to gravity on the planet is  1.40625m/s²
