Relationship between RPM, RCF and G - (Dec/11/2005 )

whats the realtion between RPM,RCf,G???

-Ravella-

RCF: relative centrifugal force and is expressed in units of gravity (times gravity or × g)
RPM: revolutions per minute

g = (1.119 x 10^-5) * rpm^2 * r


g is the relative centrifugal force
R is the radius of the rotor in centimeters
S is the speed of the centrifuge inrevolutions per minute.

Thanks for the information,but can u send those mathametical expressions as attachment as I couldnt get them.
