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.

Explain please.

Two horizontal curves on a bobsled run are banked at the same angle, but one has twice the
radius of the other. The safe speed (for which no friction is needed to stay on the run) for the
smaller radius curve is v. What is the safe speed on the larger-radius curve?

In uniform circular motion, the net force is perpendicular to the velocity and changes the direction of the velocity but not the speed. If a projectile is launched horizontally,the net force (ignoring air resistance) is perpendicular to the initial velocity, and yet the projectile gains speed as it falls.
