Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Centrifugal force is the apparent outward force on a mass when it is rotated. Think of a ball on the end of a string that is being twirled around, or the outward motion you feel when turning a curve in a car. In an inertial frame, there is no outward acceleration since the system is not rotating.

Detailed explanation-2: -centrifugal force, a fictitious force, peculiar to a particle moving on a circular path, that has the same magnitude and dimensions as the force that keeps the particle on its circular path (the centripetal force) but points in the opposite direction.
