The centripetal force, Fc, is calculated through the equation,
Fc = mv²/r
where m is the mass,v is the velocity, and r is the radius.
Substituting the known values,
Fc = (112 kg)(8.9 m/s)² / (15.5 m)
= 572.36 N
Therefore, the centripetal force of the bicyclist is approximately 572.36 N.
Answer:
towards left
Explanation:
As we know that there is no external force on the system of two cart so total momentum of the system is conserved
so we will say

now plug in all data into the above equation

here we assumed that left direction of motion is negative while right direction is positive
so we can solve it for speed v now
