Answer:
Centripetal force F = 0.0078 N
Explanation: Given that the
Mass M = 41 kg
Velocity V = 0.02 m/s
Radius r = 2.1 m
Centripetal force F = MV^2/r
Substitutes all the parameters into the formula
F = (41 × 0.02^2)/2.1
F = ( 41 × 0.0004 )/2.1
F = 0.0164/2.1
F = 0.0078 N
The centripetal force acting upon her is 0.0078 Newton
