The centripetal force is what draws the object towards the centre.
The centrifugal force is what draws the object away from the centre.
Generally when one speaks of centrifugal force, one means only that it takes the centripetal force to keep moving the object out of its straight direction of travel.
If you remove the centripetal force in such an example, such as when the object is in a circular orbit around another body, then the result will be that the orbiting body will continue traveling in a straight line at a tangent to the circular path it had been following.
The object will fly out on a angle to the circle.
The force that keeps objects moving in a circle is known as the centripetal force, which acts towards the center. The velocity of the object moving in a circle will be tangential to the circle.
The Centripetal force keeps a object moving in a circle and its force and acceleration are directed toward the center of the circle
The force that keeps an object moving in a circle or an arc is called a centripetal force. Gravity is an example of centripetal force that keeps a satellite in a circular orbit around a planet. Another example is when you ride on a merry-go-round - the rotating play structure imparts a centripetal force upon you, forcing you to also travel in a circle.
gravity keeps us in a circle
The type of force that keeps an object such as the Earth moving in a circle is a combination of gravity and centrifugal force. Gravity wants to pull the object inward, but centrifugal force wants to push the object outward. This combination keeps objects going in a circular path. You could also say that, for objects such as a rock attached to a rope that is swung in circles, the forces are the tension of the rope opposing centrifugal force. This is essentially the same thing, except with different forces at work.

No. The force keeping a ball on a string moving in a circle is centripetal force, i.e. force pulling the ball to the center of the circle.

The centripetal force which always acts perpendicular to the motion of the object
The Centripetal force keeps a object moving in a circle and its force and acceleration are directed toward the center of the circle
