Why you are not thrown out when earth rotates?

As an object on Earth's surface, you move along with the planet due to inertia. The force required to overcome Earth's gravitational pull and throw objects out into space is much greater than the force generated by the rotation of the Earth. This is why we stay grounded as the Earth rotates.


Why does water dont spill when earth revolves?

Water stays put on the Earth's surface as the force of gravity pulls it towards the center of the planet. The rotation of the Earth creates a centrifugal force that counteracts the gravity, resulting in a balance where water doesn't spill as the Earth rotates.


On planet earth there is no centrifugal force at the?

At the center of the Earth, the centrifugal force is zero because all mass is evenly distributed around that point, resulting in a gravitational force that is balanced. As you move away from the center, both gravitational and centrifugal forces increase. At the surface of the Earth, the centrifugal force is present due to the rotation of the planet.


Can you equate gravity and centrifugal force of earth?

Gravity is the force that pulls objects towards the center of the Earth, while centrifugal force is the outward force acting on an object moving in a circular path. On the surface of the Earth, gravity is much stronger than centrifugal force, which is why objects remain grounded. At the equator, where the centrifugal force is strongest due to the Earth's rotation, it partially counteracts gravity making objects slightly lighter.


When a body is taken from the equator to the poles it's weight?

When a body is taken from the equator to the poles, its weight increases slightly due to the decrease in centrifugal force experienced at the poles compared to the equator. This is because the Earth rotates, and the centrifugal force counteracts gravity; at the equator, the body experiences the maximum centrifugal force. Additionally, gravitational force is slightly stronger at the poles due to the Earth's oblate shape, which further contributes to the increase in weight. Therefore, the body will weigh more at the poles than at the equator.


The meaning of centrifugal energy?

Centrifugal energy refers to the outward force generated when an object rotates around a central point. This force pushes objects away from the center of rotation and is often experienced in situations such as spinning rides or centrifuges used in laboratories.


What is G in centrifugal force 2000 G?

In the context of centrifugal force, "G" is a unit of measurement representing the force of gravity. When something experiences centrifugal force of 2000 G, it means the force applied to it is 2000 times that of Earth's gravitational force.


Is centrifugal force is more at equator than poles?

No, centrifugal force is greater at the poles than at the equator because the Earth's rotation causes a bulging effect at the equator that counteracts the centrifugal force. This is why objects weigh slightly less at the equator compared to the poles.


Why don't we swirl off the earth as it rotates fast?

The Earth's gravitational pull keeps us grounded despite its rapid rotation. The force of gravity is stronger than the centrifugal force created by the Earth's rotation, so we remain firmly in place on the surface.


What main force creates and drives your weather on earth?

Centrifugal


Is centrifugal force a pseudo force?

Yes. Sort of. If you consider the rotating system from the point of view of somebody OUTSIDE the system (not participating in the rotation), no "centrifugal force" is required to explain anything; there is an unbalanced centripetal (center-seeking) force, which accelerates whatever rotates, toward the center.


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.
