    Answer:

    A. it acts at a right angle to the objects motion and causes the object to constantly change direction

    Centripetal force comes from the Latin, centrum = centre and petere=to seek. It acts perpendicular to the object path, towards the center of the curve. This results in change of the direction of the object’s velocity but not in change of object’s speed.
