A car is traveling in a circular curve on a horizontal road at constant speed. Name the force that is responsible for causing its circular motion? a the gravity force b the normal force from the road c the friction force from the road d the tension force
The correct answer is c the friction force from the roadÂ
In fact, the friction force between the road and the tires prevents the car from "sliding away" in a straight line and keeps it in circular motion, acting as centripetal force.
