How centripetal force equals to gravitational force?
The centripetal force is equal to the gravitational force when a particular body is in a circle. For a body that is in an orbit, the gravitational force is equivalent to the centripetal force.
What provides the centripetal force that keeps objects in orbit?
Centripetal force wants to move something towards the centre. So in a satellites case that would be the Gravity of the Earth. If you had a rock tied to a string you were spinning around, the Centripetal Force would be the tension in the string acting towards the centre.
What two motion form an orbit?
An orbit is formed when an object is moving in a curved path around another object due to the gravitational pull between them. The two motions involved in an orbit are the object's forward motion (tangential velocity) and the pull of gravity keeping it in a curved path (centripetal force).
Which force pulls objects in toward the center of a circle?
The centripetal force is responsible for pulling objects toward the center of a circle as they move in a curved path. This force acts perpendicular to the velocity of the object, keeping it on a circular trajectory.
When objects are in orbit what forces hold it there?
In orbit, the force of gravity between the object and the celestial body it is orbiting keeps the object in orbit. This force creates a centripetal acceleration that balances the object's inertia, causing it to stay in a stable orbit.
What is centirpetal force?
When an object moves in a circle, a force is needed to pull the object towards the center of its motion. This force is called the centripetal force.
Is Centripetal force the same as centrifugal force?
No. Centripetal force is a real force that pulls objects towards the center of the circular motion. Centrifugal force is a ficticious force that seems to pull an object towards the outside.
How does it move around the sun?
For object to orbit around the Sun, it required gravitation force from mass of the Sun in balance with centripetal force from velocity of the object. If the gravitation force is too strong then the object would pull down to the sun and if the centripetal force is too great then the object would escape from the orbit.
What is the force that can be thought of as either a push and pull as long as it makes the object move in a circular path?
centripetal
What keeps an object in centripetal motion?
The centripetal force
How does the centripetal force affect the centripetal acceleration of an object moving in a circle?
The centripetal force is responsible for providing the centripetal acceleration required to keep an object moving in a circle. As the centripetal force increases, the centripetal acceleration also increases, causing the object to move in a tighter circle. Conversely, a decrease in centripetal force will lead to a decrease in centripetal acceleration, resulting in a wider circle or the object moving off its circular path.
Centripetal Force is that force which we apply on the object?
Actually, centripetal force is the inward force that keeps an object moving in a circular path. It is not a force that we apply to the object, but rather a force that is required to maintain the object's circular motion. Examples of centripetal force include tension in a string for a swinging object or friction for a car going around a curve.
Force can be thought of as either a push or a pull as long as it makes the object move in a circular path.?

What is the relationship between the normal force and the centripetal force acting on an object in circular motion?
In circular motion, the normal force is the force exerted by a surface on an object to prevent it from falling through. The centripetal force is the force that keeps an object moving in a circular path. The normal force and the centripetal force are related because the normal force provides the centripetal force needed to keep the object in circular motion.
What is a force that holds a moving object in a circular path is called the?

What is the reaction force to centripetal force in a centrifuge?
The centripetal force is the force with which the centrifuge pushes some object inwards. The opposite force, of course, is the object pushing the centrifuge outwards.
