📊 Centripetal Force Formula
F = mv²/r = mω²r = 4π²mrf²
Where F is centripetal force, m is mass, v is velocity, r is radius, ω is angular velocity, f is frequency

💡 Tips & Information
- Centripetal force is the force that keeps an object moving in a circular path
- It always points toward the center of the circular motion
- F = mv²/r is the most common form of the equation
- 1 N = 0.2248 lbf (pound-force)
- Use SI units for most accurate calculations
