Question
Suppose a NASCAR race car rounds one end of the Martinsville Speedway. This end of the track is a turn with a radius of
approximately 57.0 m. If the track is completely flat and the race car is traveling at a constant 24.5 m/s (about 55 mph) around
the turn, what is the race car's centripetal (radial) acceleration?
centripetal acceleration:
Incorrect
Which force is responsible for the centripetal acceleration in this case?
