Hey padio,
Yes it's true that in the string, the tension will act & that's equal to the centripetal force acting. Here also there is a misconception. Just like action reaction pair, this is also one.
The centripetal force acts on the body rotating, & to equalise that one , the tension force acts in the rope. Now, the point to note is that, the force would have been zero, if it would b acting on the same body.But, centripetal force is acting on the body & tension is acting in the string in opposite direction.
U can also understand that by taking the case of breaking of string. If u rotate it extremely fast, at a point , the string will break. If the force would b zero, then it would have never broken.
Rate me if satisfied......
