listen to the pronunciation of centripetal
Englisch - Englisch
of, relating to, or operated by centripetal force
directed towards the central nervous system; afferent
directed or moving towards a centre
{a} tending to or towards the center
moving towards the center
tending to unify
of a nerve fiber or impulse originating outside and passing toward the central nervous system; "sensory neurons"
Expanding first at the base of the inflorescence, and proceeding in order towards the summit
{s} proceeding toward a center; using centripetal force
tending to move toward a center; "centripetal force"
Defined by Beavers as part of the Beavers-Timberlawn Model, a family system dynamic in which members are tightly bound to one another emotionally and encouraged to seek gratification from one another
toward the center of a circle, as in centripetal acceleration
This means simply "towards the centre " Most commonly it is encountered in mechanics A centripetal force is the force attracting an object to the centre during circular motion The opposite to centripetal is centrifugal On cells, centripetal waves travel toward the nucleus As the nucleus is toward the rear of a cell, such waves move, approximately, from front to back
Having the radicle turned toward the axis of the fruit, as some embryos
Progressing by changes from the exterior of a thing toward its center; as, the centripetal calcification of a bone
Tending, or causing, to approach the center
tending to move toward a center; "centripetal force" of a nerve fiber or impulse originating outside and passing toward the central nervous system; "sensory neurons" tending to unify
centripetal force
The force on a rotating or orbiting body in the direction of the centre of rotation
centripetal acceleration
– the acceleration, toward the center of the circle, of an object in uniform circular motion about this center
centripetal acceleration
"center-seeking" acceleration for an object moving in a circular path (a vector quantity)
centripetal acceleration
The acceleration associated with motion around a circle, directed to the center of the circle
centripetal acceleration
Acceleration toward center of circular motion
centripetal acceleration
Acceleration directed toward the center of a circular path
centripetal acceleration
Property of the motion of an object traveling in a circular path. Centripetal describes the force on the object, directed toward the centre of the circle, which causes a constant change in the object's direction and thus its acceleration. The magnitude of centripetal acceleration a is equal to the square of the object's velocity v along the curved path divided by the object's distance r from the centre of the circle, or a = v^2/r
centripetal acceleration
the acceleration toward the center that holds a satellite in elliptical orbit
centripetal acceleration
The acceleration of an object toward a fixed central point that produces circular motion
centripetal acceleration
The acceleration which acts toward the center of the circle on an object in uniform circular motion; its magnitude is a = v2/r where v is the speed and r is the radius of the circle
centripetal force
n. The component of force acting on a body in curvilinear motion that is directed toward the center of curvature or axis of rotation. Centripetal force is necessary for an object to move with circular motion. a force which makes things move towards the centre of something when they are moving around it (centripetus, from centr- + petere )
centripetal force
the inward force on a body moving in a curved path around another body
centripetal force
force which pulls objects toward the center around which they are moving
centripetally
using centripetal force
centripetally
towards a centre or axis
centripetally
toward a center; with centripetal force
centripetal
