Banking of Roads

Concept Card: Dynamics of Uniform Circular Motion & Banking of Roads 1. Centripetal Acceleration & Centripetal Force ($F_c$): A particle of mass $m$ executing uniform circular motion of radius $r$ at speed $v$ (angular speed $\omega = \frac{v}{r}$) experiences a continuous inward radial acceleration: $a_c = \frac{v^2}{r} = \omega^2 r = v\omega$ By Newton’s Second … Read more
