The centripetal force acting on a 1.5 kg mass moving in a circular path is 27N

A centripetal force is a net force acting on an object in order to maintain the object's movement in a circular motion.

According  to Newton's first law, it states an object will continue to proceed its movement in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force.

The centripetal force is the external force at work here and  It's the net force that propels the object in a circular motion.

Using the formula for calculating centripetal force:

[tex]\mathbf{F_c = mass (m) \times acceleration (a)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{F_c = 1.5 \ kg \times18 \ m/s^2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{F_c = 27 \ N}[/tex]
