Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Question

Centripetal force F acts on a car going around a curve. If the speed of the car were twice as great, what would be the magnitude of the centripetal force necessary to keep the car moving in the same path?
