There is no outward force of rotational motion. It is a force that is applied inward, towards the center of the circle that the object is traveling around. This is called centripetal force.
The perceived outward force, also known as centrifugal force, is actually a reaction force to the inward centripetal force, and is a consequence of Newton's third law of motion - "To every force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force."

What is the cause and the outcome of rotational motion?
The cause of rotational motion is a force towards a fixed point called centre of curvature. The outcome of rotational motion is the tendency of the rotating body to move radially- (eg) outward shifting of objects in a car as it takes a curved path.
What is the rotational analog of force in linear motion?
The rotational analog of force in linear motion is "Torque".
Which force is associated with rotational motion?
Two forces associated with rotational motion are centripetal force and centrifugal force.
What forces are associated with rotational motion?
Centrifugal force and centripetal force are associated with rotational motion. Centrifugal force draws a rotating body away from the center of rotation. Centripetal force is usually the cause of circular motion. Answer2: The curl force is associated with rotational motion, F =cDelxP = 1RxP cp/r sin(P) = 1RxP ma sin(P). Rotational motion is a vector and the rotational force is a vector, 1RxP.
What is centrifugal motion?
Centrifugal motion is an outward force on a body rotating about an axis. It is the opposite of centripetal force.
Does a pulley convert linear force to a rotational motion?
YES
What is the force that pulls an object away from the axis when it is in rotational motion?
it's centrifugal force..
Can small force exert greater torque?
Not exactly,torque is the force that affects rotational motion; the greater the torque, the greater the change in rotational motion. It is always specified with regard to the axis of rotation.
How a body gets rotational and linear motions in space?
Linear motion occurs when a force acts through the center of gravity of a body. Rotational motion arises due to a force applied anywhere else on the body.
How is a pulley important?
Pulleys are used to change the direction of an applied force, transmit rotational motion, or realize a mechanical advantage in either a linear or rotational system of motion.
What fictitious force seems to push objects outward from the center of a circle when it is in uniform circular motion?
That's 'centrifugal' force.
When applying a force to make an object move why is it most effective to have the applied force aimed directly at the objects center of mass?
The question is based on the false assumption that imparting a rotational motion on an object is not making it move.Applying the force which is not aimed directly at the centre of mass imparts a rotational as well as a translational motion. Why should this be considered any less than only rotational or only translational motion?
