Why doesn't water fall out of a container when you spin it 360 degrees?

The force that holds water in the container is called centripetal force. It is not specific to water, it affect anything spun in a circle. The water has inertia, which means it wants to continue in the direction that its moving - if you were to let go, the water would fly forward in its current direction. And not only does your container keep the water from flying off, it also keeps changing the direction the water wants to go. If you spin the container fast enough, centripetal force can beat the force of gravity. Its as if the water is being endlessly thrown into the bottom of the container.

The pint container would be the best choice since it holds two cups, which is double what you need. The quart container would provide enough milk but you would have leftover, while the half gallon container is too much excess for just one cup.
