Uniform Circular Motion
Motion of an object at a constant speed on a circular path, where speed is constant but direction is not.
Period
Time taken for an object to complete one revolution around a circle.
Centripetal Acceleration
Acceleration directed towards the center of a circle in uniform circular motion.
Centripetal Force
Net force required to produce centripetal acceleration to keep an object moving in a circular path.
Apparent Weightlessness
Sensation of weightlessness when an object is freely falling under gravity's influence.
Artificial Gravity
Simulating gravity through centrifugal force or acceleration to create a gravitational effect in space.
