What is centripetal acceleration?
1. An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion at the same speed and direction, unless it experiences an unbalanced force
2. The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied.
2. All forces act in pairs.
