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...

so

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.

cheers

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