Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

needed for the car to stay on this circular path?

OA Weight
OB Tension
OC. Normal force
Op Friction
