    "The Force Table" is a simple tool for demonstrating Newton’s First Law and the vector nature of forces. This tool is based on the principle of “equilibrium”. An object is said to be in equilibrium when there is no net force acting on it. An object with no net force acting on it has no acceleration. By using simple weights‚ pulleys and strings placed around a circular table‚ several forces can be applied to an object located in the center of the table in such a way that the forces exactly cancel

A force is required in uniform circular motion.Centripetal Force & AccelerationSince an object in motion will travel in a straight line (Newton ’s First Law) an force must be required to accelerate the mass . This force does not cause a change in velocity as stated in the introduction‚ but rather it is responsible for the change in direction. The centripetal

    transcontinental plane flight‚ your coffee cup sits motionless on your tray. Are there forces acting on the cup? If so‚ how do they differ from the forces that would be acting on the cup if it sat on your kitchen table at home? Determine the Concept Yes‚ there are forces acting on it. They are the normal force of the table and the gravitational pull of Earth (weight). Because the cup is not accelerating relative to the ground‚ the forces are the same as those that would act on it if it was sitting on your table
