Isn't the bus going too fast so centripetal force that allows it to turn right is larger, hence providing a torque that will tip the bus over to the right (i.e. clockwise torque)?
Homework Statement
Consider the rear view of a bus turning right. If the driver turned the bus while traveling too fast, the bus could topple over. If the bus did topple would the bus fall to the left or to the right?
Explain.
Since the bus was turning to the right, the centripetal force...

Hi,
I'm having a bit of trouble explaining this physics phenomenon:
A sodium lamp emits yellow light; that to the human eye appears to be quite similar to a
candle flame in colour. When light from these two sources is viewed through a
spectroscope, it is found that...
Sorry, I'm still a bit confused... The 5 kg weight is on a 30˚ slope and the spring scale is on the slope as well. How am I supposed to work out a horizontal force? Is that the force that will be recorded by the spring scale?
Thank you!
