When a body or object moves in a circle, it is said to be in a circular motion. That is we can say that motion in a circle is a circular motion. When a body or object moves along a circular path, then ...

Centripetal force is the real inward pull that keeps objects moving in circles, while centrifugal force is the apparent outward push we only feel in rotation.

Here is what I like to do (for fun). Take a classic physics problem and go over the solution. After that, I take it just one step further to see what happens. Today, let's start with this problem (you ...

6.In uniform circular motion, the centripetal force acting on an object is: (a) Parallel to the motion of the object. (b) Perpendicular to the motion of the object. (c) Opposite to the motion of the ...

A cam is a simple mechanism that converts rotary motion (movement that goes round in a circle) into linear motion (movement in a straight line). These mechanisms can be found in car engines, printing ...
