Practical Write up of Centripetal Force
Centripetal Force
Background Theory:
Centripetal force is the force required to keep an object moving in a curved or circular path. It is directed inwards toward the center of the curved path. In this experiment, the mass of the revolving object and its radius of motion are kept constant. The centripetal force is provided by the weight of the slotted masses and is varied by adding more or less mass to the carrier. The frequencies …showed first 75 words of 1119 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1119 total…in a circle of a fixed radius).
By plotting a graph of frequency versus centripetal force, both manually and electronically (using graphics calculator), it is discovered that the relationship between frequency and centripetal force can be written in a cubic formula (ax3 + bx2 + cx d), where:
a is equal 0.19
b is equal to -2.1601428
c is equal to 8.30191428
and d is equal to -9.2927314<Tab/>
x is frequency
and y is centripetal force
