a force, arising from the body's inertia, which appears to act on a body moving in a circular path and is directed away from the centre around which the body is moving.In Newtonian mechanics, the centrifugal force is an inertial force (also called a "fictitious" or "pseudo" force) directed away from the axis of rotation that appears to act on all objects when viewed in a rotating frame of reference.
The concept of the centrifugal force can be applied in rotating devices, such ascentrifuges, centrifugal pumps, centrifugal governors, and centrifugal clutches, and incentrifugal railways, planetary orbits andbanked curves, when they are analyzed in arotating coordinate system. The term has sometimes also been used for the reactive centrifugal force that is a reaction to acentripetal force.
