This tool calculates the centrifugal force based on the mass, radius, and angular velocity you provide.
How the Centrifugal Force Calculator Works
This calculator is designed to compute the centrifugal force experienced by an object moving in a circular path. Centrifugal force is given by the formula:
F = m * v^2 / r
Where:
- F is the centrifugal force in Newtons (N)
- m is the mass of the object in kilograms (kg)
- v is the velocity of the object in meters per second (m/s)
- r is the radius of the circular path in meters (m)
How to Use the Calculator
- Enter the mass of the object in kilograms.
- Enter the radius of the circular path in meters.
- Enter the velocity of the object in meters per second.
- Click the “Calculate” button.
- The result will be displayed in Newtons.
Calculation Limitations
This calculator assumes that the movement is occurring in a perfect circular path and that the velocity is constant. It does not account for factors such as friction, air resistance, or changes in velocity. Use this tool for educational purposes and basic problem-solving.
