How To Use centripetal force In A Sentence
- They can exercise a subtle, unseen influence, somewhat like a magnetic field or centripetal force, compelling us inexorably back on ourselves.
- [3] If the periodic times are in the sesquiplicate ratio of the radii, and therefore the velocities reciprocally in the subduplicate ratio of the radii, the centripetal forces will be in the duplicate ratio of the radii inversely; and the converse. The World's Greatest Books — Volume 15 — Science
- The rest of the station's ‘gravity’ is merely centripetal force from its rotation.
- Momentum is mass times velocity, so both factors influence the size of centripetal force.
- In future blogs, I'll be addressing a number of centripetal forces -- ways that families maintain themselves and their members under the circumstances of modern life, and not to worry, my answers may not be what you'd expect from an old professor of psychology, grandfather of 8, ritualist extraordinaire. Marshall P. Duke: Prime Time for Families
- Of course, the required centripetal force also decreases as we make the radius of the circle bigger.
- The force which draws the revolving body continually to the center, or the deflecting force, is called the centripetal force, and, aside from the impelling and retarding forces which act in the direction of its motion, the centripetal force is, dynamically speaking, the only force which is exerted on the body. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886
- The force which retains the celestial bodies in their orbits has been hitherto called centripetal force; but it being now made plain that it can be no other than a gravitating force, we shall hereafter call it gravity. Dictionary of the History of Ideas
- In order to derive pleasure from the occupation of the mind, the principle of unity must always be present, so that in the midst of the multeity the centripetal force be never suspended, nor the sense be fatigued by the predominance of the centrifugal force. Literary Remains, Volume 1
- The dynamical force, that which produces motion, is the centripetal force, drawing the body continually from the tangential direction, toward the center; and what is termed centrifugal force is merely the resistance which the body opposes to this deflection, _precisely like any other resistance to a force_. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886
