Draw a useful picture for this situation, indicating directions of the acceleration and velocity as the car goes around the curve. B. If you heed the sign and slow to this speed as you go around the curve, what will be your acceleration? C. At what speed will your acceleration be double that of part B
On an otherwise straight stretch of road near Netherland, Colorado, the suddenly turns. This bend in the road is a segment of a circle of radius 110m. Drivers are cautioned to slow down to 75km/h as they navigate the curve.
A. Draw a useful picture for this situation, indicating directions of the acceleration and velocity as the car goes around the curve.
B. If you heed the sign and slow to this speed as you go around the curve, what will be your acceleration?
C. At what speed will your acceleration be double that of part B?
