We consider wastewater treatment as a water use because it is so interconnected with the other uses of water.
Definition of Centripetal Force. Centripetal force is a force that makes an object follow a curved path. The direction of the force is oriented at a right angle to the direction of travel of the object, toward the center of the circle along which the object is moving.
where is the centripetal acceleration. The direction of the force is toward the center of the circle in which the object is moving, or the osculating circle (the circle that best fits the local path of the object, if the path is not circular). The speed in the formula is squared, so twice the speed needs four times the force.
