Centripetal acceleration
... The small subscript c specifies that this is a centripetal acceleration. It is called this because centripetal means “center-seeking”. If you look back at the velocity vector diagram, the change in velocity vector points down and to the left, anti-parallel to the s2 vector. The s2 vector is pointin ...

... Both you (the dot) and the car (the box) are originally moving with the same velocity (red vector), together. The force that made the body of the car turn has not acted on you. Your body’s tendency is to keep moving in its original direction. With respect to the car, it seems you are pushed left. ...

Section 2: Gravity
... ▪ All objects, regardless of their mass, accelerate at the same rate when they are in free fall. Why? Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion explains it: an object’s acceleration increases if the force on it increases, but its acceleration decreases if its mass increases. So, the more massive an object is, the ...

Classical central-force problem
In classical mechanics, the central-force problem is to determine the motion of a particle under the influence of a single central force. A central force is a force that points from the particle directly towards (or directly away from) a fixed point in space, the center, and whose magnitude only depends on the distance of the object to the center. In many important cases, the problem can be solved analytically, i.e., in terms of well-studied functions such as trigonometric functions.The solution of this problem is important to classical physics, since many naturally occurring forces are central. Examples include gravity and electromagnetism as described by Newton's law of universal gravitation and Coulomb's law, respectively. The problem is also important because some more complicated problems in classical physics (such as the two-body problem with forces along the line connecting the two bodies) can be reduced to a central-force problem. Finally, the solution to the central-force problem often makes a good initial approximation of the true motion, as in calculating the motion of the planets in the Solar System.
