A model train with a mass of #4 kg# is moving along a track at #18 (cm)/s#. If the curvature of the track changes from a radius of #25 cm# to #42 cm#, by how much must the centripetal force applied by the tracks change?
The centripetal force changes in a factor of

To find the change in centripetal force, first calculate the initial and final centripetal forces using the formulas:
Initial centripetal force: F_initial = (mv^2)/r_initial Final centripetal force: F_final = (mv^2)/r_final
Then, subtract the initial force from the final force to find the change:
Change in centripetal force: ΔF = F_final - F_initial

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
