It is one of the science experiment I watched recently on TV.
A bucket full of water was made to spin around, but the water has not fallen to ground !! When we swing a bucket of water around , the force that keeps out the water from falling to the ground is CENTRIFUGAL FORCE due to rotation of bucket. Here there are two forces acting which are opposing each other. The centripetal force applied by the bucket stops the water from flying outwards and the centrifugal force due to rotation stops water from falling down. They are equal and opposite so the water stays inside the bucket when we spin it around. |
