A stunt driver rounds a banked, circular curve. The driver rounds the curve at a high, constant speed, such that the car is just on the verge of skidding to the outside of the curve. Which forces are directly responsible for producing the car's centripetal acceleration? a. centripetal force b. Coriolis force c. normal force d. frictional force e. gravitational force

Respuesta :

Answer:

option C and D

Explanation:

When a stunt driver is rotating on the banked road the force which is responsible for the centripetal acceleration of the car is Frictional force and the Normal Force.

The Frictional force component of the banked road will protect the car from skidding.

And the normal force component will protect the car from toppling inward due to centripetal force acting on it.

Hence, the correct answer is option C and D

A stunt driver rounds car at a banked, circular curve. Forces are directly responsible for producing the car's centripetal acceleration is frictional, normal force.

What is centripetal force?

Centripetal force is the force which is required to keep rotate a body in a circular path. The direction of the centripetal force is inward of the circle towards the center of rotational path.

Friction is the force which resist the motion of a body, when the the body is in contact with another body or surface.

Given information-

A stunt driver rounds a banked, circular curve.

The driver rounds the curve at a high, constant speed.

The car is just on the verge of skidding to the outside of the curve.

The forces are directly responsible for producing the car's centripetal acceleration has to be find out.

Here the road is banked. The surface of this banked road behave like inclined ramp road.

Now the driver rounds the curve at a high but constant speed. Therefore the wheel of the one side (say left side) is below then the wheels of the other side (say right side).

The friction force hold the car and not let it skid while the normal force let the car on the banked road.

Hence, for the car's centripetal acceleration the friction force and normal force is responsible as car is just on the verge of skidding to the outside of the curve.
