When an object moves in a circle at a constant speed its velocity is constantly changing. Its velocity is changing not because the magnitude of the velocity is changing but because its direction is. This constantly changing velocity means that the object is accelerating .For this acceleration to happen...

When an object moves in a circle at a constant speed its velocity is constantly changing. Its velocity is changing not because the magnitude of the velocity is changing but because its direction is. This constantly changing velocity means that the object is accelerating .For this acceleration to happen there must be a resultant force, this force is called the centripetal force. it is in the directed towards centre. read less

Whenever an object moves in a circular path we know the object is accelerating because the velocity is constantly changing direction. All accelerations are caused by a net force acting on an object. In the case of an object moving in a circular path, the net force is a special force called the centripetal...

Any motion in a curved path represents accelerated motion, and requires a force directed toward the center of curvature of the path. This force is called the centripetal force which means "center seeking" force. The force has the magnitude

Acceleration of a body is the rate of change of velocity which is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction.Even though an object moves with constant velocity in a circular path ,at very instant the direction of motion changes.This cause an acceleration in the body which keeps the body along the circular path.This acceleration is always directed to the centre of the circular path and known as centripetal acceleration.As we know force is only produced when an object accelerates .In simple words force experienced by body is the product of its mass and acceleration(Newtons second law).Centripetal acceleration multiplied with the mass of the rotating body gives centripetal force which is obviously directed towards the centre of the circular path in which the body or mass is rotating.Magnitude of centripetal force depends on mass of revolving body,radius of the circular path and angular velocity of the body. read less

Asked this before but can't find the link to it. So how many teachers employ caning as a punishment method? I have read both pros and cons to it. Curious about your take on it.
Still many teaches do. But I am against it. It instills fears in mind of students rather than disciplining them.
