By using simple weights‚ pulleys and strings placed around a circular table‚ several forces can be applied to an object located in the center of the table in such a way that the forces exactly cancel

A force is required in uniform circular motion.Centripetal Force & AccelerationSince an object in motion will travel in a straight line (Newton ’s First Law) an force must be required to accelerate the mass .
