A satelitte is obriting the earth What is the centripetal accerleration?
a = v^2 / rwhere:a = centripetal acceleration ((metres / second) / second)v = orbital velocity (metres/second)r = orbital radius from earth centre of gravity (metres)

What is centripetal force and centripetal acceleration?
centripital acceleration (a) can be calculated from a = v^2 / r, where v is velocity and r is radius, then centripetal force can be calculated by installing the result inf = m * a, where m = mass.the...

What is accerleration?
In physics, acceleration is a rate of change in velocity. Acceleration can also be used to describe a rate of change of anything, chemical or physical, such as reaction time, aging, growth,...

What is centripetal acceleration and centripetal force?
Centripetal force always points to the center of a circle. Gravity is a centripetal force because it all leads to the center of the Earth. When you throw a baseball on Earth, the baseball won't go...

What is the difference between centripetal force and centripetal acceleration?
force is the product of mass of the body in circular motion and centripetal accleration
