The weight created by the centrifugal force is greater.
I mean this nylon turning:
The Centrifugal force removes the weight. With the nylon by turning.
The centrifugal force removes weight and also eliminates the opposite reaction force.
OH, okay - sorry, not really sure where that is a nylon (I'm guessing a nylon weight?) but yeah - as billvon said, it wouldn't work.
The reason is simple enough - the centrifugal force doesn't "negate" the weight of the object - it is simply being held at its furthest possible point on the tether, which happens in this case to be suspended in the air, giving the illusion of negating the force of gravity. However, if you were to do this same experiment with the ball on the ground, you would notice it does not raise up at all - it will only ever reach a point where the string tethering it is on the same plane as the tangent of the objects circular path, IE, the direction the object would fly off in should the tether be cut.
