Answer:
The correct answer is:
A) Centripetal force
Explanation:
When a particle moves along a curving path, there is a force acting on it directed towards the center of the curvature of its path. This force is called the centripetal force. It is responsible for keeping the particle moving in its curved path and preventing it from flying off in a straight line. The centripetal force is always directed perpendicular to the velocity of the particle and towards the center of the curvature of the path.
