Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Banked curves are designed so that the radial component of the normal force on the car rounding the curve provides the centripetal force required to execute uniform circular motion and safely negotiate the curve. A car rounds a banked curve with banking angle = 22.0 and radius of curvature 150 m. a. If the coefficient of static friction between the cars tires and the road is s = 0.400, what is the range of speeds for which the car can safely negotiate the turn without slipping? b. What is the minimum value of s for which the cars minimum safe speed is zero? Note that friction points up the incline here.

Ⓒ Macmillan Learning An engineer wants to design an oval racetrack such that 3.20 × 10³ lb racecars can round the exactly 1000 ft radius turns at 96 mi/h without the aid of friction. She estimates that the cars will round the turns at a maximum of 175 mi/h. Find the banking angle necessary for the race cars to navigate the turns at 96 mi/h without the aid of friction. 0 = This banking and radius are very close to the actual turn data at Daytona International Speedway, where 3.20 × 10³ lb stock cars travel around the turns at about 175 mi/h.
