So, if an object is moving in a circular path, it has a force constantly directed to the center acting on it, and this force is perpendicular to the velocity. However, imagine now that it's not moving. How can one get this object to move in a circular pathway using centripetal force? Does the object need to have some initial velocity that the centripetal force needs to act on? Basically, how can one cause an object at rest to move about in a circular path?
Thanks
