Question

The force which is compulsory to sustain uniform circular motion is

• A. Centripetal Force which acts along the tangent
• B. Centripetal Force which acts along the radius inwards
• C. Centrifugal Force which acts along the radius inwards
• D. Centrifugal Force which acts along the radius outwards

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Centripetal Force which acts along the radius inwards

Centripetal Force is a must to sustain uniform circular motion as it ensures that the object stays along the circular path and it acts along the radius inwards.
