## Step 1Centripetal force is a force that makes a body follow a curved path. It is always directed towards the center of the path. ## Step 2In the given options, "twirling a can tied to a string", "gravity", and "washing machine basket in Spin cycle" are all examples of situations where an object is moving in a curved path. Therefore, they involve centripetal force.## Step 3However, "driving in a straight line" does not involve a curved path. Therefore, it does not involve centripetal force.
