Okay just one question

What is the centripetal force that allows a car to move around a sharp curve in a roadway?

Thanks

  1. that would be the normal force if the curve is banked, or the force of static friction if not.    Gravity points down into the roadway and won't contribute a component towards the center of the circle.
