Question

recall that a centripetal force is not a new type of force: it's a role that is taken by one of the four types of force that we already use. if we see an object moving in a curved path, we know that at least one of those forces is pointing inward, acting centripetally. describe at least one real-life example of an object moving in a curved path where its centripetal force is provided at least partially by each of the following types of forces: gravity, normal force, tension,

Answer 1

Answer in explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

GRAVITY AS CENTRIPETAL FORCE:

When a satellite orbits around a planet, it is in a circular motion. In this scenario, the centripetal force is provided by the gravity force.

NORMAL FORCE AS CENTRIPETAL FORCE:

When a spacecraft is sent into space, it rotates about its own axis to create artificial gravity. During this rotating motion, the centripetal force is provided by the normal reaction (force) of the walls of the satellite.

TENSION AS CENTRIPETAL FORCE:

When a mass attached to a rope is swirled in a circular motion, the tension in rope acts as the centripetal force.
