EXERCISE 13 Page 86 1. Calculate the tension in a string when it is used to whirl a stone of mass 00 g round in a horizontal circle of radius 90 cm with a constant speed of 3 m/s. Tension in string = centripetal force = mv r 0.0 kg (3m/s) = = N 0.90m. Calculate the centripetal force acting on a vehicle of mass 1 tonne when travelling around a bend of radius 15 m at 40 km/h. If this force should not exceed 750 N, determine the reduction in speed of the vehicle to meet this requirement. Centripetal force = mv r velocity, v = 40 km/h = 40 3.6 m/s Hence, centrifugal force = where mass, m = 1 tonne = 1000 kg, radius, r = 15 m and 40 (1000) 3.6 15 If centrifugal force is limited to 750 N, then = 988 N (1000) v 750 = 15 from which, velocity, v = (750)(15) 1000 = 9.685 m/s = 9.685 3.6 = 34.89 km/h Hence, reduction in speed is 40 34.89 = 5.14 km/h 3.
