Well, I was taught that it was centripetal force, but that was a long time ago.

When an object moves in a circle and acts to accelerate the object toward the center of the circle is what?
Centripetal Force is the correct answer

Do you need force to make an object moving in a circle?
Yes you do. You need a force that always attracts the object toward the center of the circle. It's called a "centripetal force".
What is the Direction of Acceleration of an object moving on any circular path at constant speed is pointed?
In toward the center of the circle.
Why does and object accelerate when it falls toward Earth's surface?
Gravity is unopposed while an object is falling.

What force keeps an object moving in a circle. in what direction does this force act?
The Centripetal force keeps a object moving in a circle and its force and acceleration are directed toward the center of the circle

Why do objects accelerate during free fall?
Earth's gravity pulls all objects toward its center of mass, or in most cases toward the surface. Gravity is a property of matter,and causes every mass to exert a force on every other mass. In this case, the Earth's gravity applies a force to every object on it, and that force will accelerate an object toward the Earth's center, unless it is prevented by some intervening mass. It will still have the potential to accelerate again if the intervening mass is removed.
How much centripetal force is exerted toward the center of a circle?
F=(MV2)/R Where F is centripetal force, M is the mass of the object, V is the straight-line velocity of the object and R is the radius of the circle it is travelling in.
What is the direction of acceleration for an object in the air?
Heavier than air objects accelerate downwards. Lighter than air objects accelerate upwards until they are no lighter than the air around them.
The net force on an object moving with constant speed in circular motion is in which direction?
The net force is always directly toward the center of the circle.
