What is centripetal acceleration?
Back
Centripetal acceleration is the component of an object’s acceleration directed toward the center of the object’s circular path.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How is the magnitude of centripetal acceleration calculated?
Back
The magnitude of centripetal acceleration for an object moving in a circular path is the ratio of the object’s tangential speed squared to the radius of the circular path.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
In which direction is centripetal acceleration directed?
Back
Centripetal acceleration is directed toward the center of an object’s circular path.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What can result in centripetal acceleration?
Back
Centripetal acceleration can result from a single force, more than one force, or components of forces exerted on an object in circular motion.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is required at the top of a vertical, circular loop to maintain circular motion?
Back
At the top of a vertical, circular loop, an object requires a minimum speed to maintain circular motion. At this point, the gravitational force is the only force causing the centripetal acceleration.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do static friction and normal force contribute to centripetal acceleration on a banked surface?
Back
Components of the static friction force and the normal force can contribute to the net force producing centripetal acceleration of an object traveling in a circle on a banked surface.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What role does tension play in centripetal acceleration for a conical pendulum?
Back
A component of tension contributes to the net force producing centripetal acceleration experienced by a conical pendulum.
