Question

State whether true or false.
The centrifugal force and the centripetal force acting on a body are action-reaction pairs w.r.t. Newton's third law of motion.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

The action-reaction pairs w.r.t. Newton's third law are experienced in the same frame of reference and they act on different bodies.

Whereas the centripetal and centrifugal forces act on the same frame but in different frames of reference.

Hence, the statement is false.
