governor, for instance, the weight moves outwardly till the tensionon the spring—representing centripetal force—overcomes the cen-trifugal force and tends to cause motion inwardly of the weight. This demonstration is limited to the centrifugal force exertedby a particle revolving at uniform speed… … The acceleration along the radius may be taken as the difference between two successive velocities along two consecutive radii. If in each secor the origin is taken at the end of the left radius, we may take the velocity along the light radius as the acceleration. For example, the velocty along the…
