Centripetal force (from Latin centrum "center" and petere "to seek"[1]) is a force that makes a body follow a curved path: its direction is always orthogonal to the velocity of the body‚ toward the fixed point of the instantaneous center of curvature of the path. Centripetal force is generally the cause of circular motion. In simple terms‚ centripetal force is defined as a force which keeps a body moving with a uniform speed along a circular path and is directed along the radius towards the centre

The officer believes that one of them might be responsible for a string of recent burglaries. The teens are questioned‚ and the officer becomes angry at their responses. Over the objections of the teenagers‚ both teens are pulled out of the car and shoved around a little. They are both told that they are under arrest

equilibrium of forces was investigated through the use of different weights attached to cords which were connected to a central ring‚ while pulleys supported them. This assembly facilitated the force band system to demonstrate that equilibrium will be attaining regardless of disturbances. However‚ due to errors in the experiment‚ the sum of the x and y component did equate to zero as predicted. The graphical solution of the experiment yield a polygon that is completed indicating that all the forces are in

large-scale operations over extended distances.” During his campaign for the presidency‚ Barack Obama frequently pledged to reform the defense budget. But his defense budget‚ released in the same week as the QDR‚ shows no clear- cut separation from the spending habits perpetuated in the budgets of his predecessor‚ George W. Bush. It allocated more funds for Special Forces‚ helicopters‚ missile-launching drones and other equipment for the “asymmetric wars” in Afghanistan and Iraq but it also provided for

= 300g 9.8 3. Explain the effect of mass on Hooke’s Law. Hooke’s Law states that the restoring force of a spring is directly proportional to a small displacement. Applying a mass to the end of the spring stretches it‚ changing the length from its original equilibrium position of rest‚ to a new (lower) equilibrium position. At this position‚ the vertical restoring force of the spring balances the weight and the downward pull of gravity is balanced by the upward pull of the spring

............................... 7 AIM To show that three forces acting upon a body‚ in equilibrium‚ may be represented by a triangle of forces. (Vector addition) INTRODUCTION With this experiment we will show that a body in a state of equilibrium‚ with three forces acting in a singular plane. The following conditions must be met: * Moment of all three forces must pass through the same point. * Magnitudes of the forces can be represented by the sides of a triangle‚ each as a vector

An electron gun fires electrons into a magnetic field directed straight downward. Find the direction of the force exerted by the field on an electron for each of the following directions of the electron’s velocity: (a) horizontal and due north; (b) horizontal and 30° west of north; (c) due north‚ but at 30° below the horizontal; (d) straight upward. 2.

Title: Centripetal Force Tools and Equipments: nylon cord‚ different weighing hanging masses‚ stopwatch‚ meter stick. Purpose: To be able to determine the relationship between centripetal force‚ mass‚ velocity‚ and the radius of orbit for a body that is undergoing centripetal acceleration. To investigate the dynamics of uniform circular motion. Specifically the relationships among the centripetal force‚ the accelerated mass and the radius of rotation. Procedure: THEORY:

Organizational Behavioral Forces There are many forces that dictate the organizational behavior within an organization. The organizational behavior will tend to shift based upon the different demands both internally and externally. Internal and external factors have an equal importance within organizations and will have different effects and outcomes on an organization. In this paper we will compare four very different organizations and demonstrate the effect four factors have on the organizational
