Calculate Centripetal Force







Formula

The formula to calculate the Centripetal Force is:

\[ F_C = \frac{M \cdot v^2}{r} \]

Where:

Definition

Centripetal Force is the inward force required to keep an object moving in a circular path.

Mass is the quantity of matter in a body regardless of its volume or of any forces acting on it.

Velocity is a vector quantity (it has both magnitude and direction) and is the rate of change of the position of an object with respect to time.

Radius typically refers to the distance from the center of a circle or sphere to its outer edge or surface.

How to calculate the Centripetal Force

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ F_C = \frac{35.45 \cdot 61^2}{6} \]

Evaluating:

\[ F_C = \frac{35.45 \cdot 61^2}{6} \]

The Centripetal Force is approximately 21984.9083333333 Newton.
