Why do pizza chefs throw the dough in the air to make the crust bigger? how does the radius increase?

i think it deals with one of these equations:

centripital acceleration = (velocity ^2) / radius

centripital force = mass * velocity^2 / radiusWhy do pizza chefs throw the dough in the air to make the crust bigger? how does the radius increase?
They throw it into the air to increase the radius and to make it close to uniformly round. When the dough is in the air there is very little resistance, and, when thrown so that the axis of rotation is perfectly vertical, the rotational motion will create the centripetal force, which increases as the radius of the pie increases.

(Keep in mind that the velocity of a particle of dough is related by w*r)
