Ramon and Sally are observing a toy car speed up as it goes around a circular track.
Question:
Ramon and Sally are observing a toy car speed up as it goes around a circular track. Ramon says, “The car’s speeding up, so there must be a net force parallel to the track.” “I don’t think so,” replies Sally. “It’s moving in a circle, and that requires centripetal acceleration. The net force has to point to the center of the circle.”
Do you agree with Ramon, Sally, or neither? Explain.
