I think you mean centripetal force.

No I mean centrifugal. It's a fictitious force, an artifact of choosing a rotating non inertial coordinate frame.

Gravity arises similarly, by being in a non inertial frame induced by mass energy

This was the key insight behind Einstein attempting to get general relativity working.
