You are sitting in the back seat of a taxi. The taxi driver makes a very sharp turn to the left, but maintains a constant speed. Because you are not wearing your seatbelt, you begin to slide to the right. 1)Which of the following forces acted on you to make you slide to the right? Centripetal force to the right Centripetal force to the left Friction force to the right Friction force to the left There is no force that made you slide to the right.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Friction force to the right

Explanation:

Since we know that when car is taking sharp left turn then our tendency of motion is along the car

So we also have tendency to take turn towards left

Since we know that friction force always oppose the tendency of relative motion between two surface

so the friction force between car and us will oppose the relative motion and it will act opposite to it

So the friction force will be towards right due to which the person inside the car will slide towards right

so correct answer will be

Friction force to the right

The person seat on back seat of taxi, starts to slide to the right then the force acted on body is centripetal force towards the left.

What is centripetal force frictional force?

Centripetal force is the force which is required to keep rotate a body in a circular path. The direction of the centripetal force is inward of the circle towards the center of rotational path.

Frictional force is the force which is resist the original force, when  applied on the body by another body at the point of their contact.

Given information-

The person is sitting at the back seat of a taxi.

The taxi rotates over a sharp turn with constant velocity.

Let x is the person sited inside the taxi on the back seat. Now as he does not wear the seat belt, thus his body will tent to move in the opposite direction of taxi moving.

Here, in the attached image the person is show. As the driver takes the left turn, with a constant speed. It will move in a circular path.

Thus the centripetal force act by this rotational motion will act on the body outside the rotation of angle.

Thus the body starts to slide to the right due to the concur this centripetal force towards the left.

Hence, the body starts to slide to the right then the force acted on body is centripetal force towards the left.
