Answer 1

The centripetal force is the force that acts towards the center of the circle, keeping the object moving in a circular path. As the object is swung on a string in a circle, you can feel the effects of the centripetal force in the tension of the string. The string pulls towards the center of the circle, creating a tension force that you can feel as a pulling sensation. Therefore, the centripetal force can be felt through the tension in the string. The gravitational force is not directly related to the centripetal force in this scenario.
