The force that keeps an object moving with a uniform speed along a circular path is the Centripetal Force. It is a real force whereas Centrifugal Force is not a real force but a pseudo force used in non-inertial frame of reference to explain the apparent outward force experienced by the object moving in circular motion.
So, these two forces, despite being opposite in direction, do not cancel out each other. So, Statement I is False.
The magnitude of both these forces is same but their direction is opposite.
So, Statement 2 is True.
