A glimpse of the questions.

Question 01

A car travels around a circular track with a radius of 80 m at a constant speed of 25 m/s. Calculate the car’s centripetal acceleration.

Question 02

A 0.5 kg object is twirled in a horizontal circle on a 0.75 m string at a constant speed of 4 m/s. Calculate the tension in the string.

Question 03

A satellite orbits Earth at a speed of 7,000 m/s in a circular orbit with a radius of 6.5 × 10^6 m. Calculate the satellite’s centripetal acceleration.
