centrifugalna

Centrifugalna refers to a force experienced by an object moving in a circular path. It is often described as an outward-pushing force, though it is technically an effect of inertia. When an object is forced to change direction, as in circular motion, its tendency is to continue moving in a straight line. This tendency to move in a straight line, or its resistance to changes in velocity, is inertia. The centripetal force is the inward force required to keep the object moving in a circle, constantly changing its direction. The centrifugal effect is the apparent outward force felt by an observer within the rotating frame of reference.

For example, in a spinning washing machine, the water is flung outwards due to centrifugal effect. The drum provides the centripetal force to keep the clothes moving in a circle. Similarly, when a car turns a corner, passengers feel pushed towards the outside of the turn because their bodies' inertia resists the change in direction. The tires of the car provide the necessary centripetal force to make the turn. The faster the object moves or the tighter the circle, the greater the centrifugal effect will be. This principle is utilized in various applications, such as centrifuges used in laboratories for separating substances and in amusement park rides.
