centripetal
The Centrifugal force, cDel.P.
An object will move on a circular path if there is a force that keeps it in this circular path - in other words, that pushes it towards the center.
Centripetal force is necessary to keep an object in a circular path.
Centripal acceloration is the net force when an object moves in a circular path.

Centripetal force is the force that keeps an object moving in a circular path. It always acts towards the center of the circle. In a circular orbit, the centripetal force is provided by the gravitational force between the orbiting object and the object it is moving around. If there were no central force, the object would move in a straight line tangent to the circle.
Centripetal Force ^^
Centripetal force is the force toward the center of a circular path. It is often confused with centrifugal force, which is the force away from the center.
