-- Momentum and centrifugal force are similar in the sense that both of them often arise
during a discussion of mechanics, kinematics, elementary newtonian physics, etc.
-- Momentum and centrifugal force are different in the sense that momentum exists,
can be measured, has magnitude and direction, and is conserved, whereas centrifugal
force is entirely fictitious and non-existent.

How is the transfer of momentum related to force?
A force is required to change momentum.An "impulse" refers to the amount of momentum transferred; impulse can be defined as force x time (more precisely: the corresponding integral).
What is the reaction force to Centripetal Force within a Centrifuge If centrifugal forces are fictitious?
Always centrifugal is the reaction force for centripetal
Is centrifugal force is more at equator than poles?
Yes, there is more centrifugal force near the equator than at the poles of the earth.
On planet earth there is no centrifugal force at the?
...poles!
Can centrifugal force be balanced by coulomb force in an atom?
It can, but other forces (like the Strong Nuclear Force) also balance out the electromagnetic force. This gets into quantum mechanics, and the centrifugal force doesn't really apply a whole lot.
How are force and momentum related?
They are related for if you use a lot of momentum,the force you exert will be greater.
How does thE centrifugal force is related to centripetal force?
Centrifugal force does not exist, it is only the objects' inertia trying to keep the object moving in a strait path.
What happens to momentum if you quadruple the force?
Momentum is mass x velocity. It is not directly related to force.
Are centrifugal force and Reactive Centrifugal force the same thing?
Reactive centrifugal force is not the same thing as centrifugal force. Reactive centrifugal force is the reaction force. It is the reaction force reacting to a centripetal force.
How can you related of force with the change of momentum of a body?
Change of the body's momentum = (force on the body) x (length of time the force acts on it)
Centrifugal force increases with?
Centrifugal force appears to increase with speed of rotation. Centrifugal force is a myth. It doesn't exist.
What is centrifugal force a measure of?
Centrifugal force is a measure of the opposite reaction of a centripetal force.
Example of centrifugal and centripetal forces?
Centrifugal force is a ficticious force. In a circular motion, there is no force that pulls an object away from the center. On the contrary, it continuously has to be pulled towards the center, to maintain the circular motion - the centripetal force.An example is any space orbit - Earth going around the Sun, Moon around the Earth, artificial satellites around the Earth, Solar System around the center of the Galaxy. In each case, the centripetal force is gravity, that pulls objects toward the center.Answer2: The centrifugal force is related to the divergence of the vector velocity. If the velocity is directed away from the center there will be a centrifugal force.A moving object has vector energy mcV and the force due to the velocity is thecentrifugal force = mc Del.V = mcv/r cos(RV). Centrifugal force exists when cos(RV) is less than 90 degrees.Centrifugal force is as real as the centripetal force. Physicists ignore the momentum energy cmV=cP, this is the "Dark Energy" astronomers are looking for.Because the Dark Energy is "unknown" the "Dark Force" (Centrifugal Force) is unknown. Every moving mass (almost all mass) has momentum mV and consequently Vector Energy, cmV=cP. The centrifugal force is Einstein's "Cosmological Constant". he Centripetal Force is the Real derivative of the Real Energy d/dr (-mGM/r2) = mGM/r2 and the Centrifugal Force is the Vector Derivative of the Vector energy Del.cmV= -cmv/r cos(V) = - cp/r cos(V).
Is centrifugal a force?
The centrifugal force is an apparent (ficticious) force, caused by a rotational movement. The amount of the apparent centrifugal force can be calculated by the same formula as the amount of the real centripetal force.
Centrifugal force where it is been used?
Centrifugal force is used in a roller coaster.
An example of centrifugal force?
Centrifugal force is an illusion, and doesn't really exist.
How can you use centrifugal in a sentence?
Centrifugal force is often confused with centripetal force.
