Description
A self-guided worksheet for upper level physics classes. Incorporates contact forces, centripetal force, and circular motion into a real-world example. Students will stretch their existing knowledge of forces and circular motion to determine a reasonable speed limit for vehicles driving on local roads. A map is provided within this lesson, but teachers may choose to provide local maps for increased interest and relevance.
