What is the centripetal force that causes it to move in a circle?

Answer 1

Centripetal force, which is the product of the mass and the centripetal acceleration.

Fcp = m x acp

You can measure the acp in various ways:

acp = v2 / r acp = ω2 x r

Answer 2

Any force acting radially from a fixed point is called the centripetal force.

Since, the force acts radially therefore it causes the object in a circular path around the

centre of force.

Answer 3

A force on the object that's always directed toward the center of the circle.

When the force is arranged like that, it's called a "centripetal force".

Answer 4

Centripetal force
