Hi nikita,

Banking of roads is an application of centripetal force.Centrifugal force is an imaginary force and does not come into picture in this case.

I went through the article, but couldnt make out clearly that, whether banking of roads can be considered as an application of centripetal force or centrifugal force.
Kindly clear my doubt.
