A0.580-kg rock is tied to the end of a string and is swung in a circle with a radius of 0.500 meters. the velocity of the rock is 4.50 m/s. what is the centripetal force acting on the rock? 15.5 n 5.22 n 69.8 n 23.5 n

Review multiple-concept example 7 in this chapter as an aid in solving this problem. in a fast-pitch softball game the pitcher is impressive to watch, as she delivers a pitch by rapidly whirling her arm around so that the ball in her hand moves in a circle. in one instance, the radius of the circle is 0.626 m. at one point on this circle, the ball has an angular acceleration of 66.1 rad/s2 and an angular speed of 12.6 rad/s. (a) find the magnitude of the total acceleration (centripetal plus tangential) of the ball. (b) determine the angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction.
