Engineers design curves on roads to be segments of circles. They also design dips and peaks in roads to be segments of circles with a radius that depends on expected speeds and other factors. A car is moving at a constant speed and goes into a dip in the road. At the very bottom of the dip, is the normal force of the road on the car greater than, less than, or equal to the car’s weight?
