Question
Identify the force that is determined by the friction force as the car is turning a corner?
- Centripetal force
- Tension force
- Normal force
- Gravitational force
Hint:
As a car makes a turn, the force of friction acting upon the turned wheels of the car provides centripetal force required for circular motion.
The correct answer is: Centripetal force
As a car makes a turn, the force of friction acting upon the turned wheels of the car provides centripetal force required for circular motion.
