You are studying circular motion by placing pennies on a turntable and then turning it on so that it will spin. You keep increasing the speed until one of the pennies slips off. You repeat this procedure and observe that the penny close to the outer edge always slip off first. What is the best inference? 1.The penny near the edge has a greater tangential velocity than the one in the center, so it experiences more air resistance. It’s the effect of the air “blowing” it off.

2.The centripetal force required to keep the pennies in place increases with the distance from the center. Eventually, as the turntable spins faster, the friction force between the turntable and the penny near the edge is not enough to supply the required centripetal force.

3.The centrifugal force acting on the pennies is stronger on the one near the edge than the one near the center.
