| Oct 25 at 17:01 | comment | added | KDP | A graph of velocity vs radius can have any curve you like depending on depending on the constraints of the system. Your question is very unclear. You need to specify what the system and constraints are for anyone to be able to help you. | |
| Oct 25 at 5:49 | comment | added | ProfRob | The line plotted on the radius vs velocity graph isn't quadratic. Please revise your question. Can you also put error bars on the points, otherwise one cannot say what relationships there may or may not be between the variables. There would appear to be more than 2 variables in your experiment. How are the others kept constant? | |

| Oct 24 at 23:57 | comment | added | march | The centripetal force required to keep an object of mass $m$ moving at a speed $v$ in a circle of radius $r$ is $mv^2/r$, which is quadratic in $r$. | |

| Oct 24 at 23:28 | comment | added | Steeven | Do you have the graph to show, by any chance? For uniform circular motion, the radius would be constant, so I do not fully understand what graph you are refering to. And are you by velocity refering to the speed, perhaps? When you mention the force of tension, then it sounds like you have a specific scenario in mind, because there does not have to be a tension force involved in circular motion. If you could clarify and show some graphs or equations, then that would make your question much clearer. | |
