How does centripetal force affect circular motion? A 24-N net force acts on an 8-kg rock. What is the acceleration of the rock?

Part 1: As the centripetal force acts upon an object moving in a circle at constant speed, the force always acts inward as the velocity of the object is directed tangent to the circle. This would mean that the force is always directed perpendicular to the direction that the object is being displaced.

Part 2: So a = F / m or acceleration = Force / mass. You then just input your values, so 24 / 8. 24 / 8 = 3.

Explanation:

colorectal cancer may also develop from areas of abnormal cells in the lining of the colon or rectum. this area of abnormal cells is called dysplasia and is more commonly seen in people with certain inflammatory diseases of the bowel such as crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.

the moving of the box is a result of centripetal force. think of that  as a car or a truck in this case creates a turn, the force of friction performing upon the turned wheels of the car runs centripetal force obligatory for circular motion for the things inside it.
