Centripetal force & Centrifugal force What is centripetal force ? Centripetal force definition :- A force acted on a particle performing circular motion along the radius and towards the centre of circle is called centripetal force. As there is no displacement in direction of centripetal force hence it does not perform any work. Centripetal force is also called real force. Centripetal force is given by (formula of centripetal force) Fc= mv sq/r Example for centripetal force (1) Moon revolve around the earth in circular circular orbit. A centripetal force required for the circular motion of the Moon is provided by a gravitational force of attraction between Earth and Moon. (2) In atom electron revolves around the nucleus in circular orbit. The centripetal force required for the motion of electrons is provided by electrostatic force of attraction between positive charge nucleus and negative charge electron. (3) It is a real force arising from gravitational or electrom...
