An annular ring with inner and outer radii R1 and R2 is rolling without slipping with a uniform angular speed. The ratio of the forces experienced by the two particles situated on the inner and outer parts of the ring,F1/F2 is,
A conical pendulum of length 1 m makes an angle $\theta=45^{\circ}$ w.r.t. Z-axis and moves in a circle in the XY plane. The radius of the circle is 0.4 m and its center is vertically below O. The speed of the pendulum (in m/s), in its circular path, will be : (Take g=10 ms−2)
Centripetal Force-
Force acts on the body along the radius and towards the center.
$\begin{aligned} & F=4 m \pi^2 n^2 r \\ & F=\frac{4 m \pi^2 n^2 r}{T^2}\end{aligned}$
Where,
F = Centripetal force
$\omega=$ Angular velocity
n = frequency
Centrifugal Force
It is a fictitious force that has significance only in the rotating frame of reference.
It is an Imaginary force due to the incorporated effects of inertia.
