Centripetal force is a net force that acts on an object moving in a circular path to keep it moving along that path. It is necessary to maintain uniform circular motion, with its direction always pointing towards the center of rotation. This force is essential in preventing the object from flying off in a tangential straight line. Understanding centripetal force is crucial in various fields, including physics and engineering, where it plays a significant role in analyzing and calculating the motion of objects in circular paths.
