The centripetal force is:
F = mv² / R
Where:
m: mass of the object
v: object speed
R: radius of the curve.
We have to:
m = 2000kg
v = 25 m / s
R = 80 meters.
Then the centripetal force acting on the vehicle is:
F = (2000kg * (25m / s) ²) / 80m
F = 15625 N
Answer:
Chemical potential energy is the energy stored in the chemical bonds of a substance. The various chemicals that make up gasoline contain a large amount of chemical potential energy that is released when the gasoline is burned in a controlled way in the engine of the car.
Explanation:
Energy can not be created or destroyed but can change from one form to another.
example: as a roller coaster cart loses height the more speed it gains, the potential energy is transferred into kenetic energy
