Each exhibits fictitious forces—unreal forces that arise from motion and may seem real, because the observer’s frame of reference is accelerating or rotating.

(Again, the politically correct tend to talk about the Coriolis effect, meaning deviation of a projectile, say, from an inertial frame trajectory resulting from the operation of this “force”.) A very nice illustration of this “force” is in the Frames of Reference 2 movie, starting at time 3:50.

When a satellite orbits around Earth, it is not held in equilibrium between two equal and opposite forces, namely gravity acting towards Earth and centrifugal force acting outwards. In reality, we are told, the satellite is accelerating (the centripetal acceleration); there is only one force, namely the gravitational force, which is equal to the mass times the centripetal acceleration.
