Atruck is moving around a circular curve @ a uniform velocity of 13m/s. if the centifrical force on truck is 3,300n with truck mass of 1600kg. what is curve radius?

Answer

81.94 m

Explanation

The centripetal force of an object moving in a circular path is given by:

F = mv²/r  Where m is the mass of the object, v is the constant velocity and r is the radius of the curve.

F = mv²/r

3,300 = (1600×13²)/r

3,300 = 270,400/r

r = 270,400/3,300

  = 81.94 m

what experimental evidence led scientists to change from the previous model to this one?

a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

the colors of light emitted from heated atoms had very specific energies.

experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions.

cathode rays were bent in the same way whenever a magnet was brought near them.
