What is centrifugal force  
Asked by prachivanave21.10spicertl | 13 May, 2020, 12:28: PM
answered-by-expert Expert Answer
The force acting on a body away from the centre of the circular path is called the centrifugal force. It is not a real force. However, it is considered to describe a certain motion and is called fictitious force or virtual force. Its magnitude is the same as centripetal force. It is however not a reaction force of centripetal force, because both the forces act on the same body performing circular motion.
 
 foreg: - A bucket filled with water is swirled around. The water does not spill out of it because ofthe centrifugal force acting on it away from the centre.

a ball is tied at one end of a string, the other end is tied at the centre of the merry go round. if the string breaks, the person standing outside the merry go round will observe that the ball is moving in a straight line, whereas the person standing on the merry go round observes that the ball always remains in front of him radially away from him. explain the reason for each. how is centrifugal force acting in the second case?
