Question

What is mean by centrifugal and centripetal force?

Dear student

centripetal force (from Latin centrum "center" and
petere "to seek" ) is a force that makes a body follow a
curved path: its direction is always orthogonal to the velocity of
the body, toward the fixed point of the instantaneous center of
curvature of the path Centripetal force is generally the cause of
circular motion
In simple terms, centripetal force is defined as a force which
keeps a body moving with a uniform speed along a circular path and
is directed along the radius towards the centre The mathematical
description was derived in 1659 by Dutch physicist Christiaan
Huygens Isaac Newton 's description was: "A centripetal force is
that by which bodies are drawn or impelled, or in any way tend,
towards a point as to a centre "
Centrifugal force is equal and opposite to
the centripetal force It is arises from the Newton’s law of
inertia i e everybody resists the change in its state of rest or
motion When a body moves in a circular orbit a force acts on it to
oppose the centripetal force due to inertia and directed away from
center
For example, when a bus takes a turn the person sitting at the
corner experiences a outward force this force is centrifugal
force
