Central Force
What Is Central Force?
Central force is the force acting on a particle that always leads to a point called the center (origin) of the force. So the action of the central force in particle at the distance is from the center its called: ( ) Where

is the unit vector to radial. So the central force is conservative force,

where angular momentum and energy will be constant. The usually unit vector can be written : The component is

Example of Central Force The Centripetal Force The centripetal force ( fs ) occurs when things did circular motion. The centripetal force is a resultant force that the direction toward the center of a circle when things do circular motion. The magnitude of the centripetal force on an object of mass m moving at tangential speed v along a path with radius of curvature r is:

( )

Where is as 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. In Vector notation, with a system of polar coordinates, centripetal force can be written as:

With

 Is the Unit vector in the radial direction, which is generally chosen is positive leads to outside of the circle.
Centripetal force can occur either on a circular moving objects horizontally and vertically circular. Examples of objects that move in a horizontal circular are:
