   This centrifugal force is a normal reactive force.   
      
   What is meant as centrifugal force being apparent force   
   is in the context of non inertial, rotating coordinate systems (CSs).   
      
   There exists 3 apparent forces in rotating CSs.   
      
   Coriolis force, related to ther object velocity.   
   Centrifugal force, related to the object distance to the axis.   
   Euler force, related to the CS angular acceleration.   
      
   Additionally, there can be other apparent forces   
   related to the acceleration of CS centre   
   or to tilting of the rotation axis.
