Centrifugal (away from center) force is the force that pulls something outwards when it travels along a radius, but what is pushing it out... Nothing. Inertia wants to keep that something traveling in a straight line but there must be another force keeping it in that radius. The centripetal (towards center) force is that force. So in short, when you go around a corner in a car, you don't push on the door, the door pushes on you. Do you agree?

if one was to make a balloon, but instead change the balloon so it was made out of tough light weight material. then changed the structure of the balloon so it can handle a massive vacume on the inside, apply the vacume. would this rise up, in a hypthophetical reality where a light weight steel or carbon based steel was possible?
