Question 7

Which of the following statements are CORRECT?
1) When a vehicle traverses a horizontal curve, the centrifugal force acts horizontally inwards through the centre of gravity.
2) The centrifugal force developed depends on the radius of the horizontal curve and the speed of vehicle negotiating the curve.
3) Centrifugal force is counteracted by the transverse frictional resistance developed between the tyres and pavement.
