I thinnk you mean "Centrifugal" force..... which actually refers to two different forces both of which are related to rotation. One is known as a "pseudo" force, the other as a "real" force...

Dont be mistaken into thinking that Centrifugal force is fictional because it is refered to as a pseudo force.... that term is merely used to describe the fact that this name is used as a reference frame for calculations.....
