What is the centripetal force that causes it to move in a circle?
Centripetal force, which is the product of the mass and the centripetal acceleration.Fcp = m x acpYou can measure the acp in various ways:acp = v2 / r acp = ω2 x r
What is the direction of the force that causes an object to move in a circular path?
In order to do that, the force has to be always toward the center of the circle. It's called a "centripetal" force.
