Question 3564

The sharper the curve you are driving through, how will the centrifugal force acting on the vehicle change?

  1. It will be smaller.
  2. It will be greater.
  3. It will be the same.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: It will be greater.

A tighter curve has a smaller radius. At the same vehicle speed and mass, this increases the centrifugal force associated with the turn.
