    Windsurfer making a turn (Centripetal Acceleration)

    I know that the linear acceleration is 0, what I want to figure out is the centripetal acceleration.

    Windsurfer making a turn (Centripetal Acceleration)

    "A windsurfer and their board have a total mass of 100 kg. While making a turn downwind, their heading changes from due west to due south over a 5 s time interval. If they maintain a constant speed of 10 m/s while doing this, determine their acceleration while taking the turn." v=Δx/Δt...

    Centripetal Force: Ball in Vertical Circle at Constant Speed

    Force of gravity, centripetal acceleration toward the center of the circle, and probably something else

    Centripetal Force: Ball in Vertical Circle at Constant Speed

    Thank you - at maximum tension its at the bottom of the circle

    Centripetal Force: Ball in Vertical Circle at Constant Speed

    A ball is swung around in a vertical circle at constant speed. Where is the ball when the tension in the rope is at maximum / minimum? I know where the ball is, how would I explain it?
