4 True/False Questions

1. Centripetal force → The force directed radially toward the center of rotation that is exerted by a mass on a rotating body and that causes that body to travel in a circular path around it.

   True        False

2. Acceleration → The resistance of a body to change in its state of motion.

   True        False

3. Center of gravity → That point at which all the body's mass seems to be concentrated; the center of mass

   True        False

4. Mass → The measure of a body's inertia; the amount of matter in a body.

   True        False
