Circular Motion
... • According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The centripetal force, the action, is balanced by a reaction force, the centrifugal (“center-fleeing”) force. The two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. The centrifugal force ...

In the absence of external forces, when viewed from an inertial
... Newton’s first law of motion, sometimes called the law of inertia, defines a special set of reference frames called inertial frames. This law can be stated as follows: If an object does not interact with other objects, it is possible to identify a reference frame in which the object has zero acceler ...
