A car with a mass of 1000 kg travels around a banked curve with a constant speed
Question:
A car with a mass of 1000 kg travels around a banked curve with a constant speed of 27 m/s (about 60 MPH). The radius of curvature of the curve is 40 m.
a. What is the centripetal acceleration of the car?
b. What is the magnitude of the horizontal component of the normal force that would be required to produce this centripetal acceleration in the absence of any friction?

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
