[QUOTE="andrewkirk, post: 5571281, member: 265790"] I don't understand the question. There is no need for a human in the string and ball experiment. The string could be simply tied to a pivot and the ball launched into a circular path by a machine. In the case of both the string and a solid disk, it is the tensile strength (as opposed to compressive strength) of the material that enables transmission of centripetal force. [/QUOTE]
