Circular Motion

Rate of change of velocity.

The support force experienced by an object, often associated with a normal-force reading.

The angle between the banked surface and the horizontal.

A curved surface tilted so that its outside edge is higher than its inside edge.

Tilting a road, track, or vehicle so that a support or lift force contributes to the inward resultant.

Centre-seeking.

Acceleration directed toward the centre of a circular path.

The resultant inward force responsible for centripetal acceleration.

Motion along a circular path.

The speed at which a simplified banked curve can provide the required centripetal acceleration without relying on friction.
