is centripetal force present in inertial and non-inertial frames?

Centrifugal and Coriolis are sometimes called pseudo-forces.

I think the reason for this is because they do not appear in a rotating (non-inertial) reference frame.

Circular motion
A similar effect occurs in circular motion, circular for the standpoint of an inertial frame of reference attached to the road, with the fictitious force called the centrifugal force, fictitious when seen from a non-inertial frame of reference. If a car is moving at constant speed around a circular section of road, the occupants will feel pushed outside, away from the center of the turn. Again the situation can be viewed from inertial or non-inertial frames:

1. From the viewpoint of an inertial reference frame stationary with respect to the road, the car is accelerating toward the center of the circle. This is called centripetal acceleration and requires a centripetal force to maintain the motion. This force is maintained by the friction of the wheels on the road. The car is accelerating, due to the unbalanced force, which causes it to move in a circle.

2. From the viewpoint of a rotating frame, moving with the car, there is a fictitious centrifugal force that tends to push the car toward the outside of the road (and the occupants toward the outside of the car). The centrifugal force is balanced by the acceleration of the tires inward, making the car stationary in this non-inertial frame.

Another fictitious force that arises in the case of circular motion is the Coriolis force, which is ordinarily visible only in very large-scale motion like the projectile motion of long-range guns or the circulation of the Earth's atmosphere. Neglecting air resistance, an object dropped from a 50 m high tower at the equator will fall 7.7 mm eastward of the spot below where it was dropped because of the Coriolis force.
