A0.5 kg ball moves in a circle that is 0.4 m in radius at a speed of 4.0 m/s. calculate the force exerted on the ball.

Explanation:

Given a ball of mass m= 0.5kg

The ball moves in as circle of radius r= 0.4m

Speed of the ball is v = 4m/s

Centripetal force is exerted on ball and it is given as

Fc = m•ac

ac is centripetal acceleration and it is given as

ac = v²/r

Then,

Fc = mv²/r

Fc = 0.5 × 4²/0.4

Fc = 20N.

The force exerted on the ball is 20N

half of a circle

explanation:

the arrow and the top of the circle is matching together. it is not a polygon because a polygon would always be the same shape. therefore, an half of a circle is called semicircle so you would find the radius of it.

i really dont know but i will try okay.

so i think u would just add all them up and get your answer..
