The normal force exerted on the skateboarder is less than the weight due to the effect of centripetal force.

Given data:

The position of skateboarder is at top of the circular bump.

And direction of motion of Skateboarder is towards rightward.

Since, the skateboarder is undergoing the motion over the circular path, then it will have both horizontal angular motion (moving rightward) and vertical angular motion (over the bump).

The effect of the weight of the skateboarder on the ground is reduced by the centripetal forces acting on the skateboarder and the normal force exerted on the skateboarder by the bump is equal to the reduced weight and is therefore less than the actual weight of the skateboarder.

Thus, we can conclude that the normal force exerted on the skateboarder is less than the weight due to the effect of centripetal force.

Answer from: andreamarie2004amg

The normal force exerted on the skateboarder by the bump is less than the weight of the skateboarder

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The location of the skateboarder = The top of the circular bump

The direction of motion of the skateboarder = Rightward

Therefore, given than the skateboarder has both horizontal angular motion (moving rightward) and vertical angular motion (over the bump), The effect of the weight of the skateboarder on the ground is reduced by the centripetal forces acting on the skateboarder and the normal force exerted on the skateboarder by the bump is equal to the reduced weight and is therefore less than the actual weight of the skateboarder.
