An object of mass m is traveling in a circle with centripetal force Fc. If the velocity of the object is v, what is the radius of the circle?.

Hi there!

Recall the equation for centripetal force:
[tex]F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex]

We can rearrange the equation to solve for 'r'.

Multiply both sides by r:
[tex]r * F_c = mv^2[/tex]

Divide both sides by Fc:
[tex]\boxed{ r= \frac{mv^2}{F_c}}[/tex]
