Answer: centripetal force is the force that acts on a body moving in a circular part

Step-by-step explanation:

Centripetal force is just that force that acts on a body moving around a circular path keeping it in place

While centrifugal force is the force that is directed away from the center of rotation of an object, centrifugal force is a pseudo force
