“The friction between the tyres and the road... is acting towards the center of the roundabout, at all times.” Makes perfect sense. Anything moving in a circle, is circular motion!

[@goldybindra8785]

I had a question at 18:25 when the car is at the top of the vertical circle, I think the support force should act upwards rather than down if it is in the circle as it needs reaction upwards from the track otherwise the car would just fall and support force will contribute to it. can somebody pls reply quickly as i have an exam tomorrow, thanks

[@olliehubbard1535]

I believe the support force is just the reactive force of the structure onto the car so will act towards the centre due to the track being round

[@samgurnett4708]

5:18 Can you please explain why the seats of the chair swing are being flung outwards if there is no such thing as centrifugal force? Really confused about this

[@joestinton7838]

So imagine the diagram of the circle and how the line for the velocity is in a straight line. Due to this line being straight there is a small component of the velocity acting pushing the chair away from its circular path hence why the chair swings are being flung outward.

[@AEpicNinjaPie]

Is tension centripetal force, or is tension part of the centripetal force equation? For instance, mv^/r = T - mg for a string at the bottom of a circular path.

[@ScienceShorts]

It's exactly the same as the support force of the track in the last example. For the bottom of a vertically circular path, the tension is solely responsible for the centripetal force, but also has to balance the weight, so T=mg+mv^2/r

[@mdsayed6134]

[@gooddeedsleadto7499]

direction of resultant velocity would continually change toward the center? But magnitude of the resultant would never change? This means the acceleration would not change & point toward the center? because the velocity is continuously changing the direction & the direction of the resultant velocity remains toward the center, & the rate called centripetal acceleration? Is acceleration defined number of directional changes per unit time in this case?

[@MrPiinQu]

how come at 15:34 you have divided by sin and cos, when Force is usually = cos x Theta not divided?

[@ScienceShorts]

Because we know that the force responsible for circular motion must be greater than the centripetal force. For example, if centripetal force = 5N, it is impossible for say 3N of upthrust to provide this, which is what multiplying by cos or sin would get you.

BTW: I visited a sugar factory many years ago and I saw centrifuges turning very fast & centrifuging out crystals, separating the crystals? Also, I believe one would stick to wall inside a rotating wall? What force is that, is it not centrifugal force? Please explain, thank u

[@ScienceShorts]

Not a force pushing you out, just your body wanting to carry on going straight but the centripetal force pushing you inward.

[@messaroundaccount1193]

Sir Could you please just shed a bit more light on the Aeroplane example please? Much appreciated sir!

[@moodymonstrosity1423]

Yeah the upthrust force(F) is kinda confusing like what is it for when mg is there already?

[@namename3130]

A planes wing doesnt just generate lift in an upwards sense, it creates a force that is always perpendicular to it. In level flight all the force generated by the wing is matching the gravity - mg. But when the plane banks (rolls) the force generated by the wings changes direction accordingly. Also the wings lift changes depending on the application of the ailerons (up + down flight controlls). When the plane is banked the pilot will use the ailerons to increase the lift of the wing allowing for only the vertical component of lift to counter mg and the horizontal to provide the centripetal force. If the pilot didnt use the ailerons mg would be larger than the lift component and the plane would loose height.

[@mohammadakib5289]

I hope I score a* !!!

[@faza210]

Very helpful

[@ethitlan]

For the last one, would the general form be S = (mv^2/r) + mgcosx, where x is the angle between the centripetal force and the vertical?

[@scarletdesorgher6378]

Why does acceleration= v^2/r ?

[@ashala9]

a bit late but v= ms-1, if you square that you get m^2 ^-2, dividing it by r gives ms^-2 therefore giving acceleration.

[@davidsykala5336]

HERE WE GOOOOOOOOOOO

[@kendo6669]

what exactly is the support force in the last example? if centripetal force is the resultant force and this is equal to mv^2/r. how is that you can write mv^2/r + mg = s?

[@jadesolaadelekan4907]

At 15.00, what exactly happens when a plane banks? Also, why is there a force that acts perpendicular to the wing?

[@strict_asianbroccoli2023]

why does the friction of the road against the wheels act towards the circle? other than it has to becuase it has to give the centripetal force. isnt friction against the direction of motion but the motion is tangential to the circular path? im abit confused about this point so would be grateful for some clarification. Thank you

you know how you said velocity is 90 degrees to the object's path, isn't the object's path going along with the direction of velocity and actually 90 degrees to the centripetal force? sorry i'm confused on that.

[@ScienceShorts]

When do I say that?

[@anniemoses9478]

Science Shorts sorry I misunderstood when you said that “velocity is at a tangent to the object’s path.” But I see now that you mean it’s at a tangent to object’s path which is a circle. I understand now. Thankyou!

Why is the friction always acting toward the center ? If there is no friction which direction the car is going to move out, radially outward or along the tangent?

Why does the International Space Station orbit the earth every 30 mins and why was a specific speed chosen for it?

[@mauricegold9377]

The ISS orbits the Earth every 90 minutes not 30, at an average altitude of 400 kilometres above the Earth. This was likely chosen as a safe minimum altitude that the Space Shuttle could reach, and that the ISS only required minimal occasional altitude boosts to avoid re-entry. The velocity it has is a function of its altitude. A higher altitude, less velocity. Lower altitude higher velocity. However, there is still some aerodynamic drag on the ISS due to residual atmosphere even at 400 kilometres, so it wouldn't be safe orbiting much lower, as the station is expected to remain in orbit for years, not just mere months.

[@Cardifyz]

Why is it different?

Because the sin and cos would be swapped, resulting in cos(theta)/sin(theta), which is 1/tan(theta).
