Answering your own posts is usually something our wayward pal Buck does. FWIW, I am on your side again, Mike. But I reserve the right to switch sides if Matthew starts slinging video around.........

UPP, Were you the one that showed Matthew how to use YouTube!  He's unstoppable with that thing! He hasn't posted in a couple of days cause I took down his youtube account- in other words don't mess with me or I'll blow up your computer!
What do you have 60 inches of snow so far this year?

Ohio Weather, Matthew, YouTube, and the Buck
Mike O,
Congrats on the Matthew thing.
See if you can have any luck slowing down the Bucket's posting rate. He's got some kind of hand jive thing going on now......I don't even want to go there.
I think the snowfall this year is around 70" or so. And it ain't over yet.....sometimes.....not too often..I wish I was in the land of Cotton...tonight is one of those times!

MIT Physics Demo -- Centrifugal vs Centripetal Motion

No.... It doesn't exist because it DOESN'T EXIST. Lets say you are a physicist tasked with analyzing a problem. Lets say you decide it would be easier to solve if you let the coordinate system rotate with the object being studied. A coordinate system that is allowed to rotate is called a: NON-INERTIAL coordinate system. When we us a non-inertial coordinate system to solve a problem we must include a FUDGE FACTOR.... A FICTITIOUS (meaning not real or non-existent) force in order to make Newton's laws work. We call this non-existent fudge factor CENTRIFUGAL FORCE.

Physicists labeled centrifugal force- “ficticious” as opposed to a “True” force not because it doesn’t exist but because it exists within limitations, unlike Gravity that exists in all conditions. The limitations that surround centrifugal force is that it only occurs within a rotational force- like a rock on a whirling string or lets see…. A golf swing that propels a clubhead along a circle and is released with the uncocking of the left wrist along a straight base line. Centrifugal force and centripetal force can only exist together at the same time with each other.
