Centripetal Force Calculator

Centripetal force can be calculated in circular motion or in a motion of an abject on a curve. Centripetal force acts from the center of the circular path of a given radius, on an object moving with a specified amount of velocity. Centripetal force calculator is the online tool which helps to calculate the centripetal force on a given object.

Example 1: Find the centripetal force on an object with mass 5 kg moving in a circular path of radius 25 m with the velocity 15 m/s.

The centripetal force for a given object can be calculated by the formula

Force = mass * velocity²/ Radius.

In the given question:

Mass of the object = 5 kg, travelling velocity = 15 m/s

Radius of the circular path = 25 m.

Therefore, Centripetal force = 5 * 15² / 25 = 45 N

Example 2: Find the centripetal force on a object with mass 10 Kg moving in a circular path of radius 12 m with the velocity 6 m/s.

The centripetal force for an given object can be calculated by the formula

Force = mass * velocity²/ Radius.

In the given question:

Mass of the object = 10 kg, travelling velocity = 6 m/s

Radius of the circular path = 12 m.

Therefore, Centripetal force = 10 * 6² / 12 = 30 N

I just want you to know how great Brinda has been in tutoring me on probability. She is patient and very knowledgeable in all concepts. I look forward to many more sessions with her. I appreciate her help and the great work that Tutor Pace is doing.

Your tutor has been such an inspiration to me as I have difficulty getting some of the physics concepts down and truly understanding them. She takes the time to fully explain each and every aspect of any problem I might ask for help and always with encouragement and humor.
