Answers
Answer:
Centrifugal Force Centripetal Force
Meaning Tendency of an object following a curved path to fly away from the center of curvature. Might be described as “lack of centripetal force.” The force that keeps an object moving with a uniform speed along a circular path.
Direction Along the radius of the circle, from the center towards the object. Along the radius of the circle, from the object towards the center.
Example Mud flying off a tire; children pushed out on a roundabout. Satellite orbiting a planet
Formula Fc = mv2/r Fc = mv2/r
Defined by Chistiaan Hygens in 1659 Isaac Newton in 1684
Is it a real force? No; centrifugal force is the inertia of motion. Yes; centripetal force keeps the object from "flying out".
