Undergrad A vehicle has two wheels rolling at different speeds. What forces act on the vehicle as it follows a curved trajectory ?
what you say makes a lot of sense, but it doesn't explain what im mostly interested in, what forces are applied to the vehicle, as a whole, that makes it follow this curved trajectory. There has to be a horizontal force in there and I cannot figure out where it's coming from -

This is not homework, it's a problem I came across while trying to model differential braking for my flight simulator. I cannot really see what force pushes the vehicle horizontally and I would really appreciate a detailed explaination.
