Best Answer

Centrifuges use centripetal force to separate substances in liquid or gas suspension. For example, if a test tube filled with muddy water is put into a centrifuge - a device with a wheel on a spindle with holes that hold several test tubes - and then spun around for a while, the water will separate from the dirt suspended in it.
