Question

difference between centripetal and centrifugal force

Answer 1

Answer:

Differences Between Centripetal And Centrifugal Force

Centrifugal Force

Centripetal Force

If an object moving in a circle and experiences an outward force than this force is called the centrifugal force If the object travels in a uniform speed in a circular path is called centripetal force.

The object has the direction along the centre of the circle from the centre approaching the object The object has the direction along the centre of the circle from the object approaching the centre.

Mud flying of a tire is one example of the centrifugal force. A satellite orbiting a planet is an example of the centripetal force.

Answer 2

Answer:

Centripetal Force:

1. Centripetal Force acts on a body loving in a circular path in a direction towards the center of the circular path.
2. It is a real force.

Centrifugal Force:

1. Centrifugal Force is assumed (by an observer moving in the circular path) to be acting on a body moving in a circular path in a direction away from the center of the circular path.
2. It is a virtual / pseudo force.
