Given that the mass of the object is m = 5kg.

The force on the object is F = 100 N.

The radius of the circle is r = 6 m

We have to find velocity.

Velocity can be calculated by the formula


\begin{gathered} F=(mv^2)/(r) \\ v=\sqrt{(Fr)/(m)} \end{gathered}

Substituting the values, the velocity will be


\begin{gathered} v=\sqrt[]{(100*6)/(5)} \\ =10.95\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

Thus, the velocity is 10.95 m/s
