Question

A jet fighter performs a horizontal circular turn of radius 1410. The jet is travelling at a constant speed of 235 m/s and has mass 14332.

What is the magnitude of the centripetal force experienced by the pilot?

Answer 1

i think it is 561336.66N because i used the formula f=mv^2/r

so if F=?

your mass= m m= 14332

your speed=v v= 235

your radius of the circular turn=r r= 1410

so F= (14332)*(235)^2/1410=

=561336.66N

Answer 2

The pilot experiences a centripetal force of 561336.66 N

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating centripetal force is

F = mv² / r

We are given with

F = ?

m = 14332

v = 235

r = 1410

So putting the values in the equation

F = (14332) x (235)² / 1410

F = 561336.66 Newtons
