  2. Eötvös experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eötvös_experiment

    The centrifugal force is calculated by Newton's laws of motion and depends on inertial mass. The experiment was arranged so that if the two types of masses were different, the two forces will not act in exactly the same way on the two bodies, and over time the rod will rotate.

  3. Centrifugal force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_force

    Centrifugal force is a fictitious force in Newtonian mechanics (also called an "inertial" or "pseudo" force) that appears to act on all objects when viewed in a rotating frame of reference. It appears to be directed radially away from the axis of rotation of the frame.

  4. Centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifuge

    A centrifuge is a device that uses centrifugal force to subject a specimen to a specified constant force - for example, to separate various components of a fluid. This is achieved by spinning the fluid at high speed within a container, thereby separating fluids of different densities (e.g. cream from milk) or liquids from solids. It works by ...

  5. PlasmaCar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlasmaCar

    It harnesses the natural forces of inertia, centrifugal force, gravity, and friction in order to drive the car forward and backward. It does not require a power source such as batteries, fuel, pedals, or gears - it simply runs on the child's ability to wiggle the steering wheel.

  6. Eötvös effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eötvös_effect

    The Eötvös effect is the change in measured Earth's gravity caused by the change in centrifugal acceleration resulting from eastbound or westbound velocity.When moving eastbound, the object's angular velocity is increased (in addition to Earth's rotation), and thus the centrifugal force also increases, causing a perceived reduction in gravitational force.

  7. Centrifugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugation

    It is the perpendicular force exerted on the contents of the rotor as a result of the rotation, always relative to the gravity of the Earth, which measures the strength of rotors of different types and sizes. For instance, the RCF of 1000 x g means that the centrifugal force is 1000 times stronger than the Earth's gravitational force.

  8. Artificial gravity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_gravity

    Artificial gravity, or rotational gravity, is thus the appearance of a centrifugal force in a rotating frame of reference (the transmission of centripetal acceleration via normal force in the non-rotating frame of reference), as opposed to the force experienced in linear acceleration, which by the equivalence principle is indistinguishable from ...

  9. Mach's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach's_principle

    This experiment demonstrates that the centrifugal forces arise only when the water is in rotation with respect to the absolute space (represented here by the earth's reference frame, or better, the distant stars) instead, when the bucket was rotating with respect to the water no centrifugal forces were produced, this indicating that the latter ...
