Question

if an object of mass m moves in uniform circular motion,a force acts on it whose direction is always towards the center of the circular path​

Answer 1

Answer:

Centripetal force

Explanation:

Centripetal force :- The force which act on a body towards centre of the circle when it moves in a circular path .

Ex:- The motion of the earth around the sun .

The centripetal force is also known as centre seeking force .

It expression can be written as :-

$= > f = \frac{m {v}^{2} }{r}$

where r is the radius and m is mass of body .

In the absence of centripetal force the body can't move in a circular path .

Answer 2

Answer:

Centripetal force or Centre seeking force .

Explanation:

Centripetal force - It is that force Which act on a body towards centre of the circle when it moves in a Circular path .
