Notice the cup is pointing tangentially.
Nobody is ever thrown off a roundabout radially.
An observer who is sitting eccentrically on a disc is sensible of a force
which acts in a tangential direction.

NEWTON'S FIRST LAW.
Every body perseveres in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a rig=
ht
line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed
thereon.

The lying idiot Einstein doesn't know the meaning of radial.
Proven by experiment!
Proven by peer review!

Acceleration and velocity vectors are not required to be
collinear. It would be a very boring world if they were.

There is something reassuring about the fact that Androcles
understands Newtonian physics no better than he understands
Special Relativity.

You talk about 'Newtonian physics' but much of what is eventually
attributed to Newton was already being discussed 20 years before the
Principia in a format that still retained terrestrial effects such as
tides as a link between speculation and interpretation -

The thing about this is that with 21st century technology and
especially imaging technology,there is an easier route from effects
and experiences to their actual causes .The orbital modification is
equal to or greater than the refinement Kepler introduced as it works
off the known observation that the polar coordinates experience a
single daylight/darkness cycle arising from the orbital behavior of
the Earth.

Readers looking at the letter from John Wallis to Robert Boyle should
be fascinated at the attention to detail these guys had and were it
not that Newton got greedy and short-circuited the reasonable
empirical approach which uses analogies at a human level to apply to
planetary dynamics and their effects,we would not be stuck here in the
21st century with an ideology that could be found in the science
fiction section of a bookstore in 1898.

I guess too many paychecks still rely on Newton's approach to make a
difference but honestly,once a more common approach relying on
tangible effects returns,this worthless charade will continue.
