Because different materials have different molecular organizations.
Answer:
6. Acceleration = 4.74 m/s^2
7. Centripetal force = 40.5 N
Explanation:
Problem 6.
Recall that the centripetal acceleration is defined as: , where V is the object's tangential velocity, and r the radius of the circular motion. Therefore, in or case, the centripetal acceleration would be:
which we can round to 4.74 m/s^2 (option b in your list)
Problem 7.
Now we need to find not just the centripetal acceleration using the same formula as above, but then the centripetal force.
Now we calculate the centripetal force by multiplying this acceleration times the mass of the object following the definition of force as mass times acceleration:
Centripetal force = 5.0 kg * 8.1 m/s^2 = 40.5 N

Physics is a natural science that involves the study of matter and its motion through space and time, along with related concepts such as energy and force.
Matter is generally considered to be anything that has mass and volume.
Scientific laws and theories express the general truths of nature and the body of knowledge they encompass. These laws of nature are rules that all natural processes appear to follow.
Inertia is the resistance of an object to moving or stopping
