Newton did such a good job with his laws of motion, that they still work even when objects move in circles. (1:29 )Centripetal force is just the net external force acting on an object that moves in a circle.(2:29) Episode 11 explores centripetal force with three examples - a rollerblading physics teacher, (2:59) a roller coaster vertical loop, (5:06) and enjoying a tire swing (7:25).
The Question of the Day asks: (10:01)
If you increase the mass of a car making a turn on level road, then how will the maximum velocity around the turn change?
a) there will be no change, the mass cancels
b) the max velocity will increase
c) the max velocity will decrease
