Learn the key differences between centripetal and centrifugal forces, their real-world applications in physics, and how they shape our understanding of circular motion.

This week Shini sits down with us to discuss centripetal force, centrifugal force, and a few other bits of physics to help us understand Uniform Circular motion. Crash Course Physics is available ...

‘Circular Motion,’ a debut both wildly imaginative and deeply emotional Alex Foster’s first novel is about a futuristic high-speed travel system with troubling global consequences.

A constant magnitude centripetal force that is always perpendicular to the direction of motion will make the object move in a circle. It is important to note that centripetal force is still some ...

In this Closer Look segment on circular motion, we investigate circular motion and solve for centripetal acceleration, centripetal force, and tangential velocity.

Alex Foster’s debut novel, “Circular Motion,” is precisely 360 pages long, an appropriately exact total for a story about a near future in which international travel has been revolutionized ...

When the stick first starts tipping over it's not rotating very fast (ω is small), and the gravitational force is mostly pushing towards the center of the circular motion.

The force exerted changes the velocity so the direction of the applied force changes as a result. Overall this results in a circular motion.

4. The tip of a second’s hand of a watch exhibits uniform circular motion on the circular dial of the watch. So, we understood that Force is required to make body move in a circle.
