1 (4 points) A 2-kg ball is moving with a constant speed of 5 m/s in a horizontal circle whose radius is 50 cm. What is the magnitude of the net force on the ball

100 N

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) = 2 Kg

Velocity (v) = 5 m/s

Radius (r) = 50 cm

Force (F) =.?

Next, we shall convert 50 cm to metre (m). This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

50 cm = 50 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

50 cm = 0.5 m

Therefore, 50 cm is equivalent to 0.5 m.

Finally, we shall determine the magnitude of the net force on the ball by using the following formula:

F = mv²/r

Mass (m) = 2 Kg

Velocity (v) = 5 m/s

Radius (r) = 0.5 m

Force (F) =.?

F = mv²/r

F = 2 × 5²/ 0.5

F = 2 × 25/ 0.5

F = 50 / 0.5

F = 100 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the net force on the ball is 100 N.

2.6 and i can kick good lol
