Answer:
1. Centripetal force is a force experienced by an object moving in a circular path.
2. This is a force that attracts the object towards the center of the circle.
3. As a result of this force and inertia, a pseudo-force is applied in the opposite direction which we call centrifugal force.
4. This force can cause devastating effects to vehicles on the roads turning at a hairpin bend, launching the vehicle outward.
5. This can, however, be prevented by raising the angle of the outer edge, also known as the banking of roads.
6. This helps the centripetal force pull the vehicle inward, against the centrifugal force.
