    The rash is classically described as an erythematous morbilliform exanthem [4] and presents as a distribution of soft pink, discrete, and slightly raised lesions each with a 2-5mm diameter. [4] [5] [6] It classically begins on the trunk (torso) and spreads outward to the neck, extremities, and face. This pattern is referred to as a centrifugal ...

  4. Centripetal force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centripetal_force

    In Newtonian mechanics, gravity provides the centripetal force causing astronomical orbits. One common example involving centripetal force is the case in which a body moves with uniform speed along a circular path. The centripetal force is directed at right angles to the motion and also along the radius towards the centre of the circular path.

    The rash first appears two to five days after the onset of fever, and it is often quite subtle. Younger patients usually develop the rash earlier than older patients. Most often the rash begins as small, flat, pink, nonitchy spots on the wrists, forearms, and ankles. These spots turn pale when pressure is applied and eventually become raised on ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_force

    This reaction force is sometimes described as a centrifugal inertial reaction, [44] [45] that is, a force that is centrifugally directed, which is a reactive force equal and opposite to the centripetal force that is curving the path of the mass. The concept of the reactive centrifugal force is sometimes used in mechanics and engineering.

    Since the centrifugal force of the parts of the earth, arising from the earth's diurnal motion, which is to the force of gravity as 1 to 289, raises the waters under the equator to a height exceeding that under the poles by 85472 Paris feet, as above, in Prop. XIX., the force of the sun, which we have now shewed to be to the force of gravity as ...

    Rash due to measles. Many skin conditions affect the human integumentary system—the organ system covering the entire surface of the body and composed of skin, hair, nails, and related muscle and glands. [1] The major function of this system is as a barrier against the external environment. [2]
