because of the gravitional pull of the universe..and the alignment of the asteroids...
The centripetal force acts towards the center of the circular path followed by the satellite, allowing it to maintain its orbit. In the case of a satellite orbiting Earth, the force of gravity provides the centripetal force required to keep the satellite in its orbit.
No, centripetal force is the force required to keep an object moving in a circular path, while gravitational force is the force of attraction between two objects due to their mass. In the case of a satellite orbiting a planet, the centripetal force required to keep the satellite in orbit is provided by the gravitational force between the satellite and the planet.
centrifugal force
The force that keeps the moon in orbit around the sun is the gravitational force between the sun and the moon. This force causes the moon to continuously fall towards the sun but its orbital motion prevents it from colliding with the sun.
GRAVITY!!!!
The revolutionary movement of the natural satellite such as moon around the earth makes it stable in its orbit. This is similar to the stay of earth around the sun. Scientifically speaking the gravitational force of attraction between the earth and moon becomes the necessary centripetal force to keep it stay in its orbit. This centripetal force will be along the line joining the moon and the earth. This centripetal will be balanced by the centrifugal which acts away from the earth. This centrifugal force comes into the scene due to the inertia of direction.
Centrifugal force is the perceived outward force experienced by an object in a rotating reference frame, while centripetal force is the force that keeps an object moving in a circular path towards the center of rotation. The two forces are related in that centripetal force is responsible for providing the necessary inward acceleration to keep an object moving in a circular path, while centrifugal force is an apparent outward force experienced due to inertia.
centripetal or centrifugal force...... most likely the first
Centrifugal force and centripetal force are both related to inertia. Centrifugal force is the outward "apparent" force experienced in a rotating frame of reference, caused by inertia trying to keep an object moving in a straight line. Centripetal force is the inward force that keeps an object moving in a circular path, acting in opposition to the centrifugal force and also related to inertia as it is required to overcome an object's tendency to move in a straight line.
Centrifugal force is the outward force experienced by an object moving in a circular path, while centripetal force is the inward force that keeps the object moving in a circular path. Centrifugal force pushes an object away from the center of rotation, while centripetal force pulls it towards the center. These forces work together to keep an object in circular motion, with centripetal force balancing out centrifugal force to maintain the object's path.
Centrifugal force is the outward force experienced by an object in a rotating system, while centripetal force is the inward force that keeps an object moving in a circular path. Centrifugal force pushes objects away from the center of rotation, while centripetal force pulls objects towards the center. These forces work together to keep objects in motion in a rotating system, with centripetal force maintaining the circular path and centrifugal force counteracting it.
The force is provided by the Sun's gravitational attraction.
