Question

10. The direction of the net force acting on an object in uniform circular motion is a. Toward the center c. toward any direction b. Away from the center d. dependent on the amount of force​

Answer 1

Answer:

Any net force causing uniform circular motion is called a centripetal force. The direction of a centripetal force is toward the center of curvature, the same as the direction of centripetal acceleration.

Answer 2

Option a) Toward the center

The direction of the net force acting on an object in uniform circular motion is Toward the center .

• A centripetal force is any net force that produces uniform circular motion. Similar to centripetal acceleration, a centripetal force also points in the direction of the centre of rotation.
• The acceleration's direction is always mirrored by the net force. The net force acting on an object travelling in a circle at a constant speed is pointed in the direction of the circle's centre.
• In uniform circular motion, the acceleration is directed toward the centre and along the radius. The direction of the acceleration for linear motion should follow the direction of the net force. Therefore, the direction of the net force acting on location A should be opposed to the arrows showing its velocity.
• The acceleration's direction is always mirrored by the net force. The net force acting on an object travelling in a circle at a constant speed is pointed in the direction of the circle's centre. It is said that such a direction is centripetal.
• An object is in a balanced state when the forces operating on it are both equal in magnitude and acting in the opposite directions. The motion of the thing they are acting on is unaffected because these forces cancel one another out. Unbalanced forces do not cancel out when they are applied to an item.
