The centripetal force applied by the tracks on the model train is given by the formula:
( F = m \times (2\pi f)^2 \times r )
Where:
- ( F ) is the centripetal force,
- ( m ) is the mass of the train (7 kg),
- ( f ) is the frequency of revolution (in Hz),
- ( r ) is the radius of the circular track (1 m).
Using the initial and final frequencies, we can calculate the initial and final centripetal forces, and then find the difference:
Initial frequency, ( f_1 = \frac{1}{3} ) Hz Final frequency, ( f_2 = \frac{2}{7} ) Hz
Initial centripetal force, ( F_1 = 7 \times (2\pi \times \frac{1}{3})^2 \times 1 ) Final centripetal force, ( F_2 = 7 \times (2\pi \times \frac{2}{7})^2 \times 1 )
( F_1 = 7 \times (2\pi \times \frac{1}{3})^2 \times 1 ) ( F_1 = 7 \times (2\pi \times \frac{1}{3})^2 ) ( F_1 = 7 \times (2\pi \times \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{3}) ) ( F_1 = 7 \times (2\pi \times \frac{1}{9}) ) ( F_1 = 7 \times (\frac{2\pi}{9}) ) ( F_1 = \frac{14\pi}{9} )
( F_2 = 7 \times (2\pi \times \frac{2}{7})^2 \times 1 ) ( F_2 = 7 \times (2\pi \times \frac{2}{7})^2 ) ( F_2 = 7 \times (2\pi \times \frac{2}{7} \times \frac{2}{7}) ) ( F_2 = 7 \times (2\pi \times \frac{4}{49}) ) ( F_2 = 7 \times (\frac{8\pi}{49}) ) ( F_2 = \frac{56\pi}{49} )
Difference in centripetal force, ( \Delta F = F_2 - F_1 )
( \Delta F = \frac{56\pi}{49} - \frac{14\pi}{9} ) ( \Delta F = \frac{56\pi}{49} - \frac{14\pi}{9} \times \frac{63}{63} ) ( \Delta F = \frac{56\pi}{49} - \frac{98\pi}{63} ) ( \Delta F = \frac{56\pi \times 63}{49 \times 63} - \frac{98\pi \times 49}{63 \times 49} ) ( \Delta F = \frac{3528\pi - 4802\pi}{3087} ) ( \Delta F = \frac{-1274\pi}{3087} )
Therefore, the change in centripetal force applied by the tracks is ( \frac{-1274\pi}{3087} ) or approximately ( -1.30 ) N.

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.
