          A car is driving around a curve that can be approximated as being circular.

In which direction does the centripetal force point?

in the direction of motion
away from the center of the circle
towards the center of the circle
tangential to the circle
perpendicular to the plane of the circle

The centripetal force ($F_C$) of an object can be calculated using the equation

$F_C = frac{mv^2}{R}$

where $m$ is the object's mass, $v$ is the object's velocity, and $R$ is the radius of the circle.

If the radius of the circle changes by a factor of 0.5, the force changes by a factor of

1
0.3
3
0.8
0.5
2

$A car is driving around a curve that can be approximated as being circular. In which direction does the centripetal force point? in the direction of motion away from the center of the circle towards the center of the circle tangential to the circle perpendicular to the plane of the circle The centripetal force (FC) of an object can be calculated using the equation FC = fracmv^2R where m is the object's mass, v is the object's velocity, and R is the radius of the circle. If the radius of the circle changes by a factor of 0.5, the force changes by a factor of 1 0.3 3 0.8 0.5 2$
