I need help for school. I need to know how to rearange the formula for centripetal force.
I'm an idiot at math and have no clue how to rearrange formulas anymore.
The formula is
F=mv(squared)/r
I would like to know how to do it for velocity and the radius and mass.
Tried googling but none of them show the other ones. And I can't figure
out how to rearrange from the instructions they give.
Thanks a lot, guys

OK, a while since I did maths, but here goes...
if F= MV(Squared)/R
You can move the R over to the other side of the equation by timesing both sides by R - thus:
FR=MV(squared)
or move the V over to the other side by dividing both sides by V(squared) thus:
F/V(squared) = M/R
so to get this just for radius (assuming R is radius) simply continue this - to get the R on its own, you need to divide both sides by M, so:
F/MV(Squared) = 1/R
Hope that helps - and anyone else, feel free to correct me...
etc etc...

alright, i think i have these right. someone else can check
for radius
multiply by R and divide by F
to get R = mv(sq)/F
for m, then
multiply by R, divide by v(sq) to get
m = fr/v(sq)
and for V, multiply by R, divide by M and take the Square root
v= Sqrt(fr/m)
i think this is all OK. if not, sorry, maths was a while ago for me.

Same answers I came up with independently, so it MUSt be correct! _________________ TJ
