A 1750-kilogram cars travels at a constant speed of 15.0 meters per second around a horizontal, circular track with a radius of 45.0 meters. The magnitude of the centripetal force acting on the car is

m = mass of the car moving in horizontal circle = 1750 kg

v = Constant speed of the car moving in the horizontal circle = 15 m/s

r = radius of the horizontal circular track traced by the car = 45.0 m

F = magnitude of the centripetal force acting on the car

To move in a circle. centripetal force is required which is given as

F = m v²/r

inserting the above values in the formula

F = (1750) (15) ² / (45)

F = (1750) (225) / (45)

F = 1750 x 5

F = 8750 N
