What can be a centripetal force Friction tension gravity or all?
all of the above.. all of the above..
What provides the centripetal force that keeps the motion of a pendulum oscillation?
Could be the tension in the string from which it hangs.
Why centripetal force is not balanced by centrifugal force?
Tension in a rope or friction on car whells provides the inwards force such that the object continues to travel in as curve.
Why can you consider the weight of the hooked masses as equal to the centripetal force?
The force of gravity on the hooked masses supplies the tension in the string which in turn supplies the centripetal force that keeps the body rotating.It would be better to say that the weight of the hanging masses IS the centripetal force that keeps the body revolving.... and so the two forces are equal because there is really on one force.
Is centripetal force a outward force?
No; "centripetal" implies an inward force.

What effects gravity and centripetal combined on the same orbiting path?
I'm not sure exactly what you are asking, but centripetal force is just a name given to any force that causes circular motion. Swing a rock on the end of a string and the string tension is the centripetal force. Drive a car around a flat circular track and the friction between the tires and the road is the centripetal force. Put a satellite in orbit and gravity is the centripetal force.

When a body moves in a circle how force takes part there?
For circular motion to occur, there must be a centripetal force( a force that is always directed towards the centre of the circle). The centripetal force is defined as F = mv2/r Where F is the centripetal force, m is the mass of the orbiting body, v is the velocity of the body, and r is the distance to the centre of the circle. If you whirl a conker above your head, the centripetal force is provided by the tension of the string. For a planet orbiting the sun, the centripetal force is provided by gravity.
What provides the centripetal force for a ball on a string?
The tension in the string, which prevents the ball continuing forward in a straight line.
Why can you consider the weight of the hooked masses as equal to the centripetal force?
The force of gravity on the hooked masses supplies the tension in the string which in turn supplies the centripetal force that keeps the body rotating.It would be better to say that the weight of the hanging masses IS the centripetal force that keeps the body revolving.... and so the two forces are equal because there is really on one force.
What provides the centripetal force that keeps objects in orbit?
Centripetal force wants to move something towards the centre. So in a satellites case that would be the Gravity of the Earth. If you had a rock tied to a string you were spinning around, the Centripetal Force would be the tension in the string acting towards the centre.
Is centripetal force a outward force?
No; "centripetal" implies an inward force.
There is 260g block on a 50cm -long string swings in a circle on a horizontal frictionless table at 50rpm What is the speed of the blockWhat is the tension in the string?
The linear speed will be: v = 2 * pi * r * f, where r is circle radius, f is rotations per second. To calculate tension, we can use formula for centripetal force, which is: F = mv2 / r. This centripetal force will be the tension in the string.
How centripetal force equals to gravitational force?
The centripetal force is equal to the gravitational force when a particular body is in a circle. For a body that is in an orbit, the gravitational force is equivalent to the centripetal force.
Can centripetal force produce rotation?
no, but rotation can produce centripetal force
