High school physics/Centripetal acceleration
Appearance
Any object in rotational motion due to any centripetal force such as due to gravitation, experiences an equal and opposite centrifugal force.
Centripetal Acceleration = Centripetal Force / Mass of the revolving body
Linear distance (X) = Radius (R) x Angular distance (A) = Radius x Angle in radians
Therefore, Linear Velocity (V) = dX / dt = R x dA/dt = Rw = Radius x Angular Velocity
Therefore, Centripetal Acceleration = Linear Velocity x Angular Velocity = Radius x (Angular Velocity)^2 = (Linear Velocity)^2 / Radius = V^2 / R
Therefore, Centripetal Force = Mass x Centripetal Acceleration = M x V^2 / R
