Dependence of central force on angular velocity
... The yellow digital display at the lower left shows the theoretical central force based on the values entered for the car mass, radial distance from the rotational axis and the current measured angular velocity. This can be continuously compared to the current force displayed in the upper left of the ...

... Answer: The only correct statement here is : After Bowman releases the pen, the net force on the pen is zero. There is no gravity here and since nothing is touching the pen, there is no force on it (I am ignoring the small drag force due to the air in the centrifuge.). Before the pen is released, it ...

Friction
... can easily see that by Newton’s second law, the normal force must be equal to the objects weight, thus the force due to friction depends on the COF and how much the top object is pressing down on the bottom object. The COF is different for different materials and is usually between 0 and 1, but for ...
