Weegy: Centrifuges are machines used in laboratories, medical facilities, and industries to separate suspended material from the mediums they are mixed with. [ This is done by spinning closed containers of the mixture very quickly around a fixed, central point. The centrifugal force generated by this motion forces the denser material in the suspension against the walls of the container, effectively separating it from the solution. These devices are used to separate solids from fluid suspension mediums; for example, they are an essential medical tool for separating plasma from blood samples. ]
