    A 500 kg car takes around turn of radius 50 m with a speed of 36 km/hr. The centripetel force acting on the car will be:

    A)  1200 N       

    B)  1000 N

    C)  750 N          

    D)  250 N

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Here : Mass of car\[m=500\text{ }kg\] Radius \[r=50\text{ }m\] Speed of car \[v=36\text{ }km/hr\] \[=\frac{36\times 5}{18}=10m/s\] The centripetal force is given by \[F=\frac{m{{\upsilon }^{2}}}{r}=\frac{500\times {{(10)}^{2}}}{50}=1000\,N\]
