Reactive centrifugal force is a concept often discussed in the context of rotating systems, particularly in physics and engineering. It refers to the apparent force that acts outward on an object moving in a circular path, as perceived from a rotating frame of reference. This force doesn't actually exist as a physical force in the same way as gravitational or electromagnetic forces; rather, it is a result of inertia when viewed from a non-inertial (accelerating) reference frame.
