The Tangential force, mcv/r sin(theta) where theta = arc cos v/c where v=sqrt(GM/R)=29,814 m/s.
Mass creates a velocity field v=sqrt(GM/R) this field has an angle to the radius of arc cos v/c. where c is the speed of light.
No, centrifugal force is the force that causes objects in rotation to move away form the center of rotation. The force that keeps objects moving in circular motion is called "centripetal force".
The two major forces that act upon a body are centrifugal force and centripetal force. Centrifugal force causes a body to fly outwards, or moves a body away and centripetal force counteracts centrifugal force, preventing the object from flying out and keeping it moving with a constant speed, in a circular path.Search templates (CTRL+Space) New TemplateHide button
Yes. It keeps the planets in orbit around the Sun.
Cettripetal Force causes an object to accelerate towards the center. The direction changes as the object moves around the center and is not fixed if the object moves.
Centripetal Force ^^
A force that causes an object to move in a circle is a central force, or a centripetal force.

GRAVITY!A2. Centripetal force. The velocity of the satellite around the earth causes centripetal, force which balances with the gravity, holding it in a circular orbit around the earth.

centripetal force
Circular motion doesn't produce force. 'Centripetal force' is necessary in order to produce circular motion. Also, so-called 'centrifugal force' isn't a force at all.
Centripetal force, which is the product of the mass and the centripetal acceleration.Fcp = m x acpYou can measure the acp in various ways:acp = v2 / r acp = ω2 x r
By definition, a centripetal force is a force towards a central point, exerted on an object following a curved path. It causes an object to follow a curved path, such as an orbit; this is what the gravitational force of the sun does to planets. So it is clearly a centripetal force. A centrifugal force is defined as a force that is exerted away from a center around which an object either rotates or revolves. Literally, in terms of etymology, centrifugal means fleeing the center. Planets orbit the sun because of a balance of centripetal and centrifugal forces. If there were only an attractive force pulling a planet toward the sun, the planet would fall into the sun. And if there were only a centrifugal force pulling planets away from the sun, the planets would fly out of the solar system and into interstellar space. But since these two forces are balanced, planets remain in orbit around the sun. An object on which the forces are balanced travels in a straight line at constant speed. The planets do not travel in straight lines or at constant speeds, because the forces on them are not balanced. The only force on a planet is the centripetal force of gravitational attraction between it and the sun. That single force produces all of the orbits we observe, whether elliptical (repeating) or hyperbolic (not repeating). Those orbits are fairly easy to derive using Newton's formula for gravitational force and direction, plus some geometry and some calculus. Non-furious comments: I avoid writing "centrifugal force", by writing "centrifugal effect". I think that's more or less OK, depending on your "audience". Technically "centrifugal force" is called a "fictitious force". It is actually correct to use it in a rotating frame of reference. Unfortunately, it is often used incorrectly, even by educators. Luckily, the answer to the question was "centripetal force". <<>> The physical processes are that there is a force of gravity pulling the Sun and Earth towards each other. The force acts equally both ways, producing an acceleration in both objects, towards each other, following Netwon's second law: force equals mass times acceleration. The Sun's much greater mass means that its acceleration is small, while the Earth's acceleration towards the Sun keeps it in its elliptical orbit. That is what's happening, so for those who can't remember the difference between centrifugal and centripetal, don't worry, they are not terms used by astronomers.
I'm not sure exactly what you are asking, but centripetal force is just a name given to any force that causes circular motion. Swing a rock on the end of a string and the string tension is the centripetal force. Drive a car around a flat circular track and the friction between the tires and the road is the centripetal force. Put a satellite in orbit and gravity is the centripetal force.
is called the centripetal force
