r = radius of the circle traveled by the particle = 76 cm = 0.76 m
T = time period of revolution for the particle = 4.5 s
w = angular velocity of the particle
angular velocity of the particle is given as
w = 2π/T
inserting the values
w = 2 (3.14)/4.5
w = 1.4 rad/s
a = centripetal acceleration of the particle in the circle
centripetal acceleration is given as
a = r w²
inserting the values
a = (0.76) (1.4)²
a = 1.5 m/s²
So you can use the equation force = mass x acceleration to do 2 x 5 to get 10 N
Explanation:
<u>Mass of car</u> = 137.5 kg
<u>Acceleration</u> = v - u / t = 26 - 0 / 6 = 4.33 m/sec^2
Force = m * a = 137.5 * 4.33 = 595.3 N
