[tex]\tt{\huge{\blue{Explanation:}}}[/tex]
The centripetal force exerted on an object is given by
[tex]\boxed{F_{c} = \frac{mv^{2}}{r}}[/tex]
where:
Fc = centripetal force
m = mass
v = velocity
r = radius
[tex]\tt{\huge{\red{Solution:}}}[/tex]
Solving for Fc
[tex]F_{c} = \dfrac{mv^{2}}{r}[/tex]
[tex]F_{c} = \dfrac{(\text{25 kg})(\text{6 m/s})^{2}}{\text{5 m}}[/tex]
[tex]\boxed{F_{c} = \text{180 N}}[/tex]
Therefore, the centripetal force of the boy is 180 N.
