EXAMPLES FROM CORPUS
▪
At this distance the force of gravity provided by the planet is equal to the centripetal force required.
▪
But a rotating craft exerts Coriolis forces, which work in a different direction from a centripetal force .
▪
Its role is to serve as a centripetal force against the centrifugal tendencies of the ministries.
▪
Momentum is mass times velocity, so both factors influence the size of centripetal force .
▪
Of course, the required centripetal force also decreases as we make the radius of the circle bigger.
▪
Technically it is not really the boots that are providing the centripetal force .
▪
The centripetal force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the centre.
