  2. Centrifugal force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_force

    In 1687, in Principia, Newton further develops vis centrifuga ("centrifugal force"). Around this time, the concept is also further evolved by Newton, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, and Robert Hooke. In the late 18th century, the modern conception of the centrifugal force evolved as a "fictitious force" arising in a rotating reference. [citation needed]

  3. Rotating reference frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_reference_frame

    where = is the apparent acceleration in the rotating reference frame, the term () represents centrifugal acceleration, and the term is the Coriolis acceleration. The last term, − d Ω d t × r {\displaystyle -{\tfrac {\mathrm {d} {\boldsymbol {\Omega }}}{\mathrm {d} t}}\times \mathbf {r} } , is the Euler acceleration and is zero in uniformly ...

  4. Circular motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_motion

    The net acceleration is directed towards the interior of the circle (but does not pass through its center). The net acceleration may be resolved into two components: tangential acceleration and centripetal acceleration. Unlike tangential acceleration, centripetal acceleration is present in both uniform and non-uniform circular motion.

    The true acceleration at time t is found in the limit as time interval ... The so-called 'centrifugal force', ... Acceleration Calculator Simple acceleration unit ...

  6. Stability derivatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_derivatives

    The first resembles the usual expression of Newton's Second Law, whilst the second is essentially the centrifugal acceleration. The equation of motion governing the rotation of the body is derived from the time derivative of angular momentum: =

  7. Proper acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proper_acceleration

    The first "centrifugal acceleration" term depends only on the radial position r and not the velocity of our object, the second "Coriolis acceleration" term depends only on the object's velocity in the rotating frame v rot but not its position, and the third "Euler acceleration" term depends only on position and the rate of change of the frame's ...

  8. Centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifuge

    During circular motion the acceleration is the product of the radius and the square of the angular velocity, and the acceleration relative to "g" is traditionally named "relative centrifugal force" (RCF). The acceleration is measured in multiples of "g" (or × "g"), the standard acceleration due to gravity at the Earth's surface, a ...

  9. Rotating spheres - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_spheres

    The angular rate of rotation ω is assumed independent of time (uniform circular motion). Because of the rotation, the string is under tension. (See reactive centrifugal force.) The description of this system next is presented from the viewpoint of an inertial frame and from a rotating frame of reference.
