Definition—-
“A force acting on a body causing it to move in a circular path is known as centripetal force. The direction of this force is always directed towards the centre of the circle.”
“a centripetal force accelerates a body by changing the direction of the bodies velocity without change in the body’s speed.”
F=m×a
=m×v^2/r
F=mv^2/r
It’s SI unit is -Newton
Some important example of
Centripetal Force….
(1)——Motion of a bicycle rider on a plane circular path..

(2)——Banking owner of road and rail track at turn.
