Circular Motion: Rotation, Revolution, and Forces

A force that pulls objects toward the center of a circular path

A force that pushes objects away from the center of a circle

A force that acts only on stationary objects

A force that slows down objects in a straight line

Rotation is turning around an internal axis, while revolution is turning around an external axis.

Rotation is the same as revolution.

Rotation is the movement of the Earth around the Sun, while revolution is the spinning of the Earth on its axis.

Both involve turning around an internal axis.

A car turning a corner

A tin can on a string

A ball falling straight down

Clothes in a spinning washer

It is a real force that acts outward.
