Any two forces 'cancel' each other if their magnitudes are equal and their
directions are exactly opposite.
If anything cancels a centripetal force, then the motion stops being circular,
and changes to straight-line motion.
Centrifugal force doesn't exist.
When centripetal force exists, obviously there is rotational motion. Right? Centripetal force is the force that is bringing (pointing towards center of the circle path) the object back to the center. At the same time, centrifugal force is pulling the object, we'll say a ball, away from the center. This is the force that is felt when you tie a dead baby to a rope and swing in a circular motion. In conclusion, centripetal and centrifugal are always equal and opposite forces.
Centrifugal force is the outward force experienced by an object moving in a circular path, while centripetal force is the inward force that keeps the object moving in that path. In physics, these forces are equal in magnitude but act in opposite directions, with centripetal force being responsible for maintaining the object's circular motion and centrifugal force being a result of inertia.
Centripetal ("towards the center") force is a real force, that pulls something towards the center during a circular movement. Centrifugal ("center-fleeing") force is a ficticious force, required to explain the observed reactions in a rotating frame of reference.
Centripetal force is the inward force that keeps an object moving in a circular path, while centrifugal force is the outward force that appears to push an object away from the center of rotation. Centripetal force is necessary to maintain circular motion, while centrifugal force is a perceived force that arises due to inertia. Both forces play a role in the motion of an object by balancing each other out to keep the object in a circular path.

Their directions will always be opposite: centrifugal, away from the center and centripetal toward the center. If the magnitudes of the two forces are equal, they balance each other.

Assuming you mean an object rotating around a point (i.e. on a string), no. If they did, the object would maintain a constant velocity, but because the direction changes, the velocity does too.

The term "centrifical" is a word without a definition; some would say a non-existent word. It might have the same definition as "ncauvjnscc" or "oioushc" or any other made up babble you chose to imagine. However, the term has been used enough in common parlance as to associate its meaning with either "centripetal" or "centrifugal". The centripetal force is the force applied to a linearly travelling (straight line) object to make it travel in a curve or to make it rotate about some center point. The force is applied to the object make it move toward that center point. The centrifugal force is referred to as the opposite force to the centripetal force following Newtons Law of equal and opposite reaction. However, this force is a consequence of the inertia of the object (resistance to the circular motion) and acts on the source of the centripetal force, NOT the object experiencing curved motion. The centrifugal force is equal, but opposite, the centripetal force. For instance, a weight on a string attached to an object swung about your head experiences a force applied inward (centripetal force) due to your hand (the center point) applying the force. The string also experiences this force all along its length. Your hand experiences a force applied outward (centrifugal force) due to the weights inertia (resistance to change direction at all points in time as it moves in a circle). The string also experiences this force all along the string. The opposing forces on the string keeps the string in tension. Additionally, your feet share a friction force against the surface you stand on equal to the centripetal force to keep you stationary. So the question remains: which force did you really mean, centripetal or centrifugal?
Centripetal force is provided by an inward force necessary to keep an object moving in a circular path. Centrifugal force is a fictitious outward force that appears in a rotating frame of reference. These forces are actually equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, but they act on different objects or in different reference frames, so they do not balance each other.
No, centripetal force is required to keep an object moving in a circular path by pulling it towards the center. Centrifugal force is a virtual force that appears to push an object away from the center due to its inertia. Both forces cannot act on the same object simultaneously as they are related to each other through Newton's third law.
When the Earth is revolving a force know as centripetal force is applied on it by the sun or in other words we can say that it is the gravitational pull of sun towards itself and there is another force known as centrifugal force that one feels when traveling a circular path; directed outward, it is actually the inertia of an object that is resisting being pulled in a circular path. when the earth stops revolving then there is no centrifugal force and the centripetal force will be acting on Earth which will cause earth to fall in the sun.
Centripetal forces are those that pull objects towards the center, like gravity keeping planets in orbit around the sun. Centrifugal forces, on the other hand, push objects away from the center, like the force that makes water spin off a spinning merry-go-round.
