A 1.50-kg bucket of water is tied by a rope and whirled in a circle with a radius of 1.00 m. At the bottom of the circular loop, the speed of the bucket is 6.00 m/s. Determine the acceleration, the net force and the individual force values when the bucket is at the bottom of the circular loop.

The  centripetal acceleration of the bucket at the bottom of the circular loop is 36 m/s².

The net force at the bottom of the circular loop is 68.7 N.

The given parameters:

  • Mass of the bucket, m = 1.5 kg
  • Radius of the circle, r = 1 m
  • Speed of the bucket at bottom, v = 6 m/s

What is centripetal acceleration?

  • Centripetal acceleration is the radial acceleration of an object in a circular path.

The  centripetal acceleration of the bucket at the bottom of the circular loop is calculated as follows;

[tex]a_c = \frac{v^2}{r} \\\\a_c = \frac{6^2}{1} \\\\a_c = 36 \ m/s^2[/tex]

The net force at the bottom of the circular loop is calculated as follows;

[tex]F_{net} = m(g + a_c)\\\\F_{net} = 1.5(9.8 + 36)\\\\F_{net} = 68.7 \ N[/tex]
