→About Centripetal Force
*'''Centripetal force''' can be provided by [[tension]], [[gravity]], [[friction]], or other [[force]]s depending on the situation.
*The absence of '''centripetal force''' leads to the [[object]] moving in a straight line due to [[inertia]].
*'''Centripetal force''' is not a specific [[force]] but rather the result of existing [[force]]s like [[tension]] or [[Gravitational Force|gravitational force]].*'''Centripetal force''' is critical in designing structures and systems involving rotational motion, such as centrifuges, carousels and roller coasters.
