Concept explainers

Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Question

If an object is moving in a
circle at constant speed, the
work done by the centripetal
force will always be;
Increasing
O Zero
O Negative
O Positive
