Answer:
Centripetal Force :
Centripetal force is the force acting on a body in a circular path, in a direction towards the center of the circular path.
Examples :
( 1 ) In an atom, an electron moves around the nucleus in a circular path for which the required centripetal force is obtained from the electrostatic force of attraction on the negatively charged electron by the positively charged nucleus.
( 2 ) A planet moves around the sun in an elliptical path for which the gravitational force of attraction on the planet by the sun provides the necessary centripetal force.
( 3 ) Moon moves around Earth in an elliptical path for which the gravitational force of attraction on Moon by Earth provides the required centripetal force.
