Julius competes in the hammer throw event. the hammer has a mass of 7.26 kg and is 1.215 m long. what is the centripetal force on the hammer when it has a tangential speed of 31.95 m/s? the answer is rounded off to the nearest whole number.

Respuesta :

Centripetal force a force that acts on a body moving in a circular path and is directed toward the center around which the body is moving. It is calculated by the expression:

F = mv^2/r

where m is the mass, v is the velocity and r is the radius.

F = 7.26(31.95)^2 / (1.215) = 6100 N

Answer:

D. 6,100 N
