Question

what is the quantitative relationship between centripetalforce and mass, speed, and radius? i do not understand what would happen to centripretalforce: lets say mass is 100 grams in original. what would happen if we increase the mass. or if we kept the same mass as original but increase theradius? what is the quantitative relationship between centripetalforce and mass, speed, and radius? i do not understand what would happen to centripretalforce: lets say mass is 100 grams in original. what would happen if we increase the mass. or if we kept the same mass as original but increase theradius?

Explanation / Answer

Fc = m v2/r If you increase mass, the force increases. If you increase radius, the force decreases. If you double the velocity, the force quadruples.
