35 Checkpoint A. B. C. You are driving a car with constant speed around a horizontal circular track. The net force acting on your car D. A) Points radially inward toward the center of the circular track B) Points radially outward, away from the center of the circular track C) Points forward in the same direction your car is moving D) Points backward, opposite to the direction your car is moving E) Is zero. 0% 0% 0% 0% Mechanics Lecture 4, Slide 35

37 CheckPoint Responses You are driving a car with constant speed around a horizontal circular track. The net force acting on your car A) Points radically inward toward the center of the circular track B) Points radically outward, away from the center of the circular track C) Points forward in the same direction your car is moving D) Points backward, opposite to the direction your car is moving E) Is zero. A) Force is in the same direction as acceleration (in this case, centripetal). Mechanics Lecture 4, Slide 37

38 Aside: Centripetal acceleration and force 1) Objects moving in a circle always have a component of acceleration, called centripetal, which is toward the center of the circle.* 2) Centripetal acceleration must be caused by a force: Friction, gravity whatever force keeps it moving in a circle. This force is often called the centripetal force 3) There is no new kind of force here. 4) There is no such thing as centrifugal force. * They can have also have tangential acceleration if their speed is not constant Mechanics Lecture 4, Slide 38
