  1. It is a force that acts on a body moving in a circular path and is directed toward the center around which the object is moving. A car turning a sharp corner is an example of this.

  4. Centripetal force is when something is moving in a circle and the force is in the center, the more stronger this force the faster the object is moving.

  6. Centripetal Force is a force that acts on a body moving in a circular path and is directed toward the center around which the body is moving. An example of centripetal force is when a marble goes down a path and loops and it doesn't fall off.

    A force that acts on a body moving in a circular path and is directed toward the center around which the body is moving. A roller coaster like the "Wild Mouse" at Funtown takes really sharp turns and makes it fun because you sometimes feel like you are going to fall off

  10. Centripetal force is when an object has too much momentum to be pulled down by gravity. For example, a roller-coaster might go 100 mph and then the roller-coaster does a loopty-loop

    An example of centripetal force is when a rollercoaster does a loopy-loop part, the gravity pushes it like the marble on the metal "track".

    Centripetal force is a force that makes the body follow a curved path, an example of centripetal force is a roller coaster that goes in a loop.

  19. Centripetal force is a force that makes a body follow a curved path: its direction is always orthogonal to the velocity of the body, toward the fixed point of the instantaneous center of curvature of the path. Wikipedia

  40. A central force is a force that points from the particle directly towards (or directly away from) a fixed point in space, the center, and whose magnitude only depends on the distance of the object to the center.

    An example is if you have a lanyard and u spin it around in the circle or a yo-yo trick that is called a round the world.

  41. "A central force is a force that points from the particle directly towards (or directly away from) a fixed point in space, the center, and whose magnitude only depends on the distance of the object to the center."
    Example: If your on a roller coaster that is an example.
