A carousel is spinning at a speed of 100 cm/s, with the outermost horse at a distance 5 m from the center. This horse experiences a force of 3 x 10-3 or 0.003 N. Consider a horse placed at exactly half the distance from the center as the outermost horse. What will be the centripetal force experienced by this horse, if all the other variables are kept the same?
