What direction is centrifugal force to the force that holds the object in a round path of motion?

a. to the left
b. to the right
c. directly opposite
d. at a right angle

C

Centrifugal force is the apparent outward force on a mass when it is rotated. ... Since Earth rotates around a fixed axis, the direction of centrifugal force is always outward away from the axis. Thus it is opposite to the direction of gravity at the equator; at Earth's poles it is zero.
