Dr. Carlson's Science Theater: Circular Motion - Episode 16

To go in a circle, you have to be pulled towards the middle of the circle. Also called centripetal force. Merry-go-rounds have to do with artificial gravity because when it goes in a circle, its being pulled in the middle but you feel like you are being pushed off the side. The platform from where the rides are placed on are being pulled down from gravity. The platform is what's being pulled towards the middle.

However, I would like to reserve the right to point out I didn't say anything incorrect either. As the paper is a disc, at any one point there is a part of the paper that would fly out (in a straight line) in any given direction. The paper doesn't want to move in a straight line, each part of the paper wants to move in it's own straight line. Technically, since there is a part of the disc willing to fly in any given direction at any given moment, the "paper" itself is attempting to fly in all directions. (Just tangent to the circle, not directly out from the paper.) This is easily seen if the paper were to shatter, shards of paper would fly in many directions, not all in one direction.

With respect, Dr. Coulson, having watched the video again you use the word 'out' to describe what the paper is 'trying to do'. To the overwhelming majority of people would that not imply motion away from the centre of the circle? (That's the implication I took). Therefore I think that what you said is incorrect because it moves towards the dangerous territory of centrifugal force and only confuses and not clarifies a difficult Physics concept and one I have spent my working life trying to get across to students.
