The force that keeps the body moving in circular motion is _______

The force that keeps the body moving in circular motion is _______ Correct Answer Centripetal force

Centripetal force is responsible for keeping bodies moving in circular motion. The centripetal force is directly proportional to the square of the tangential velocity and inversely to the radius of circle.
