Concept explainers

Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Question

In a circular motion, if an object has a speed of 37.7m/s, and radius of the circular path is 10 m, what is the centripetal acceleration in m/s²?
