Hey Phil,

Ok then, what do you prefer to call the apparent force exerted when a
weight is swung around in a circle? Just semantics for you? I've
always thought centripetal or centrifugal force seemed right, but I'm
not too old to learn a new word. And it will only be a word, because
I already know that force is there.

Take care.

Hey Bob,

Maybe I read further in the article or some of the links
than seems to
be what some here are talking about. The one factor that
it stated
could account for the difference, was the centrifugal
force, which to
me is similar to the Coriolis effect.

Take care.

Problem here, there is no such thing as centrifugal force.
Never was, is not
now and never will be................
