newtonian mechanics - Is the force which throws a body on a rotating disk outwards centrifugal force?


If some object is kept in a radial groove made on a disk and the disk is rotated with say constant angular velocity.


Now as we know that the object moves outwards ie away from the centre of the disk. I want to know which force is it which throws the object outwards.


As centrifugal force is a pseudo force and hence when the observer is in ground frame it shouldn't be present so which force exactly pulls it out.

Understanding Stagnation point in pitot fluid

What is stagnation point in fluid mechanics. At the open end of the pitot tube the velocity of the fluid becomes zero.But that should result...
