Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Question

are in the same direction,
O a. the speed of the object increases
O b. the speed of the object remains
constant
O c. the speed of the object decreases
