Calculate Centripetal Velocity





Formula

The formula to calculate the centripetal velocity (Vc) is:

\[ Vc = \frac{D}{r \cdot t} \]

Where:

Definitions

Example

Let's say the distance traveled (D) is 100 meters, the radius (r) is 10 meters, and the time (t) is 5 seconds. Using the formula:

\[ Vc = \frac{100}{10 \cdot 5} \]

We get:

\[ Vc = 2 \, \text{rad/s} \]

So, the centripetal velocity is 2 rad/s.
