What else can I help you with?
Centripetal forces are forces of?
Centripetal force is that which bind you toward the center when you are tilted at turning.
When you are driving in a car and turn a corner centripetal force pushes?
... you inward toward the center of the turn.
Does centripetal mean balanced or unbalanced?
Centripetal force acting on an orbiting object is unbalanced since the object is being accelerated.Velocity is continually changing direction if not speed. This means an orbiting object is accelerating and the direction of acceleration is toward the center. In fact, centripetal means "center seeking."A person at rest on the surface of the Earth is being acted upon by a centripetal force (toward the center of the Earth, that is, down) which is exactly equal and opposite to the spring force of the Earth's matter pushing up. Thus, in this case, the centripetal force is balanced.The previous answer (below) is generally incorrect.No,because when a body revolves round an orbit,its CENTRIPETAL force is balanced by the WEIGHT of the body!thank you!!
In the Battle of Gettysburg what were the positions in the day?
On day three, the greenbacks marched across the open field toward the warrior center.
What direction does a centripetal force vector point?
toward the center of the circle along the radius. the centrifugal force acts opposite the centripedal force
How do planets orbit according to law?
The planets and the Sun orbit around each others common center of gravity referred to as the barycenter. Think of the planets as free falling objects. The Earth, as all of the other planets, are actually falling toward the center of the Sun's gravity. That is to say, for every one foot they fall toward the Sun, the Sun moves one foot out of the way.
Does gravity pull things toward the center of the earth?
Yes, gravity is a force that pulls objects toward the center of the Earth. This force is what keeps us grounded and gives weight to objects.
How does gravity affect people and things?
It pulls each of them down, toward the center of the Earth.
Can you please explain Gravity?
Gravity is the force by which a planet or other body draws objects toward its center. The strength of gravity depends on the mass of the objects and the distance between them. It is responsible for keeping planets in orbit around the sun and objects on Earth from floating off into space.
What direction does earth pull objects?
The force of mutual gravitational attraction between the earth and any other object pulls the object toward the center of the earth, and pulls the earth toward the center of the object. Both pulls have equal strength.
What force pulls an objects toward the center of the earth?
Gravity is the force that pulls objects towards the center of the Earth. This force is responsible for keeping us grounded and maintaining the orbits of celestial bodies around planets.
What makes things fall when you drop them?
Things fall when you drop them because of gravity. Gravity is the force that pulls objects toward each other. When you release an object, gravity pulls it toward the center of the Earth, causing it to fall.
What is the magnitude and direction of gravitational acceleration?
magnitude - 9.8 m/s2 direction - towards the center of the earth On or near the surface of the Earth, it's 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second2 , nominally toward the center of the Earth. On or near other planets, the number is different, and the direction is nominally toward the center of that planet.
Is it true that gravity pulls things toward the earth's center?
Yes, gravity is a force that pulls objects towards the center of the Earth. This is what causes objects to fall downward when released.
Were does gravity pull you?
Toward the center of mass of the object or objects attracting you. Gravity also pulls it/them toward the center of mass of you.
How does inertia and gravity combine to make the planets orbit the sun?
The sun's gravity is pulling the planets toward it and the planets inertia keeps them moving forward
What is a force which draws things down toward the center or the earth?
Gravity is the force that draws things down towards the center of the Earth. It is responsible for the weight of objects on Earth and determines the motion of celestial bodies in the universe.
