Centripetal force acts on circular motion towards the center. Formula: Fc = m × v²/r, where m is mass, v is velocity, r is radius
Uniform circular motion occurs when a body moves with constant speed around a circle. Velocity changes at every instant, while speed remains constant. Centripetal acceleration acts perpendicular to velocity, changing only direction. Centripetal force acts towards the center, like friction between tires and ground
Centripetal force acts towards the center of circular motion. It is perpendicular to the direction of displacement. Calculated using F = mv²/r formula. Examples include spinning balls, car turns, and planetary orbits
Centripetal force keeps objects moving in circular paths. Direction is orthogonal to body movement and center of curvature. Common types include string tension, gravitational force, and friction. Formula: Fc = mac = mv²/r, where m is mass and v is speed
Circular motion occurs when an object moves along a curved path from a central point. Centripetal force is necessary to maintain circular motion. Centripetal force acts perpendicular to velocity towards the center
Newton's 2nd Law states that total force changes an object's motion. Centripetal force points towards the center of a circle. Centrifugal force points away from the center of a circle
