Homework Statement
Does the label "centripetal force" ever appear in an FBD? Explain.
Homework Equations
None.
The Attempt at a Solution
No, centripetal force does not appear as a label on a FBD. Since it is not specific enough it does not tell us what the force is that’s keeping the object in motion, making it an unconventional label.
