Linear Speed increases when the distance from the center of the axis increases. Linear Speed increases when the rotational speed increases.

4
Pull inward
5
A force is required to maintain circular motion Any force that causes an object to follow a circular path is called a centripetal force. Centripetal means “center-seeking”
6
Gravitational force that holds the moon in orbit is a centripetal force
7
Electrical forces holding the electrons in orbit around the nucleus are centripetal forces
8
When a car rounds a corner, the _____and _____ provide the centripetal force tires road
9
If the tires are worn smooth, if the car is going very fast or the road is icy or oily, this friction force will not be available. The car will not be able to move in a circle, it will try to go in a straight line and possibly go off the road.
10
1 2 Draw the direction it would travel if released at 1 and 2
11
1 2 The object would travel tangent to the circle in a straight line
12
1) The ___ rotates at high speed during the spin cycle 2) The tub’s _______ exert force on the clothes, but the holes prevent the tub exerting the same force on the ______. 3) _____ allows the water to escape in a straight line.

14
“Centrifugal force” is a fictitious force - it is not an interaction between 2 objects, and therefore not a real force. Nothing pulls an object away from the center of the circle.
15
What is erroneously attributed to “centrifugal force” is actually the action of the object’s inertia - whatever velocity it has (speed + direction) it wants to keep.
