How to Demonstrate centripetal force

Teach your students about centripetal force with this science video tutorial. It will show you how to use some masking tape and a ball to demonstrate how centripetal force works.

Centripetal force is a force that acts on a body moving in a circular path and that is directed toward the center around which the body is moving.

Remove the circular force and watch as the ball goes astray.
