E N D
Warm Up: • Define Force: 2) Define Acceleration: The acceleration is always in the direction………
Centripetal Force: Force required to keep an object in circular motion.
Centripetal Force Discovery: • What direction is the centripetal force in? • What happens to the force as the angular speed increases? • What happens to the force as the Radius increase? • What happens to the force if the tangential velocity stays the same and radius decreases?
Centripetal Force Properties: 1) Centripetal Force Direction: 2) If the Tangential Speed increases the centripetal force will: 3) If the Angular Speed increases the centripetal force will: 4) If the radius decreases and the velocity stays constant the centripetal force will: 5) Which will have the greatest centripetal force
Which has the greatest centripetal force Two candies are placed on a spinning table, which one will have the greatest centripetal force.
Demo: • Water Bucket
Demo: Flame
Demo: Penny and Hanger Wet towel
Technology Applications Racetrack Steel wire in tires and treads: everything but chains are good on ice Engine blade and design
Centripetal Force Derivation Newton 2nd Law: F = mxa For Centripetal Force “Fc” Fc=mxac where ac – centripetal Acceleration ac=Vt2/r
Sample Problem 1: A 8kg weight is spun at 3m/s at a radius of 1 meter before being thrown. Find the following. Centripetal Acceleration b) Centripetal Force Centripetal Force Equation
Sample Problem 2: Find the normal force at the following locations if the cart has a mass of 10kg:
