1). If there is no force on the object, then it keeps moving in a straight line.
If you want it's path to bend away from a straight line, then you need a force
in order to accomplish that.
2). The force acts in the direction that bends the path away from a straight line. In
other words, in the direction in which the path curves. For a closed orbit, the force
has to be toward the center, or at least close to it. Conveniently, that's where the
big massive body happens to be, which sets up a nice, two-way gravitational force
between the central body and the orbiting body. Gravity is the centripetal force, and
it always points both ways between the two bodies, trying to draw them together.
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 acts towards the center of the circle of motion.
The centripetal force which always acts perpendicular to the motion of the object
Centripetal force is the resultant force acting towards the centre of orbit of an object undergoing uniform circular motion.
Because the object never moves in the direction of the force. So the product of (force) times (distance) is zero, and F x D is the definition of work.
the object will go in its tangential direction of that instant. centripetal force pulls the object toward its rotational axis, so if there is no force pulling it inward; inertia will make the object go in the direction it "wants to go" aka- its tangential direction
No
Yes. Forces with identical value but with opposite direction will produce no displacement.
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 acts towards the center of the circle of motion.
The centripetal force which always acts perpendicular to the motion of the object
An object will accelerate in the direction of the net force acting on that object.
Centripetal force is the resultant force acting towards the centre of orbit of an object undergoing uniform circular motion.
Because the object never moves in the direction of the force. So the product of (force) times (distance) is zero, and F x D is the definition of work.
Any net force will change an object's velocity. In the case of a centripetal force, it changes the direction of the movement, and therefore its velocity.
inertia
the weigt of an object downward.
