Question
**Question 2:** A mass \( m \) rotates at a constant speed \( v \) at a radius of \( R \) from the rotational axis. A force \( F \) provides the centripetal force \( F_c \). If you double the mass \( m \), without changing \( R \) or \( v \), the force needed to keep the mass in circular motion would:

(a) stay the same.  
(b) double.  
(c) halve.  
(d) quadruple.
