Answer:
The value is [tex]F =13.27 \ N[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass is [tex]m = 3200 \ g = 3.2 \ kg[/tex]
The speed is [tex]v = 7.2 \ m/s[/tex]
The radius is [tex]r = 12.5 \ m[/tex]
Generally the centripetal force is mathematically represented as
[tex]F = m * \frac{v^2}{r}[/tex]
=> [tex]F = 3.2 * \frac{7.2^2}{12.5}[/tex]
=> [tex]F =13.27 \ N[/tex]
