Abicyclist of mass 112 kg rides in a circle at a speed of 8.9 m/s. if the radius of the circle is 15.5 m, what is the centripetal force on the bicyclist?

Hello!

A bicyclist of mass 112 kg rides in a circle at a speed of 8.9 m/s. If the radius of the circle is 15.5 m, what is the centripetal force on the bicyclist ?

We have the following data:

Centripetal Force = ? (Newton)

m (mass) = 112 Kg

s (speed) = 8.9 m/s

R (radius) = 15.5 m  

Formula:

Solving:

The centripetal force on the bicyclist is approximately 572.36 N

the aurora is formed when charged particles emitted from the sun during a solar flare penetrate the earth's magnetic shield and collide with atoms and molecules in our atmosphere. these collisions result in countless little bursts of light, called photons, which make up the aurora.

auroras are generated by charged solar particles hitting molecules in earth's atmosphere. this usually happens in high latitudes, because our planet’s magnetic field tends to funnel these particles toward the poles. that’s why it can be experienced in northern ohio.
