Centrifugal force is v^2/r, so smaller r increases it. And we have higher v, besides.

- layer8 4y agoCentrifugal force is mω²r. Of course, v = ω2πr, which is why you have to divide v² by r. But if you compare based on the rotation period, increasing r increases the force, for the same rotation period.
