centrifugal force

21.4k RedHawk  7.6 years ago

this little experiment I made proves centrifugal force in simple planes. how it works: so the rotator that is facing up and holding the spinning arm in place DOES NOT SPIN on its own. but,, the three rotator at the end of the arm from bjac, are spinning at high speeds causing the disc to spin, and Newton laws of motion take over :D hope you guys enjoy!

    @RedHawk I can see why. Nobody except the Devs and a couple others know how the physics engine works, so the fact that you've accomplished this is amazing!
