The force which causes acceleration towards the centre of a circle is called Centripetal force but what causes it can vary.
If the speed is constant, the acceleration is toward the center of the circle.
9 feet in toward the exact center.

Motion directly either toward or away from the center is 'radial' motion. Motion where the distance from the center is constant is 'tangential' motion.

The centripetal acceleration is v2/r, directed toward the center of the circle..
If the speed is constant, the acceleration is toward the center of the circle.
If an object follows a circular path, it must have a centripetal force on it to keep it moving in a circle. Centripetal means "toward the center of the circle". The force causes Centripetal acceleration toward the center witch is along the radius of the circular path. Tangential acceleration occurs at a Tangent to the circular path and is always perpendicular to the centripetal acceleration. Always perpendicular to the radius of the circle.
In toward the center of the circle.
Centripetal means towards the center. Any object moving around in a circle is accelerating towards the center. Remember that acceleration involves a change in velocity, and a specification of "velocity" includes the direction; therefore, since the direction of the movement changes continuously, the object is "accelerating", according to the definition of acceleration.
Straight toward the center of mass of whatever body it's orbiting. If the orbit happens to be circular, then that's the center of the circle.
toward the center of the circle this is to my online bbys (E2020 :)) xD love ya ~kraziekatt4life♥
The Centripetal force keeps a object moving in a circle and its force and acceleration are directed toward the center of the circle
The force toward the centre of the circle is called the centripetal force. centrpetal acceleration.
Yes. That follows from Newton's Second Law: without a centripetal force, there could be no centripetal acceleration. Since the car accelerates towards the center of the circle, it follows that there must be a force that causes this acceleration.
The equation for centripetal acceleration is a = v2/r, where a is acceleration, v is velocity in m/s, and r is the radius of the circle in meters. So the dimension of the acceleration a = (m/s)2/m = m2/s2/m, which gives m/s/s or m/s2. The direction of the acceleration is toward the center of the circle.
when an object moved in a circular path it accelerates toward the center of the circle as a result of
