I've read so much stuff on the internet including other threads on the forum but am still confused. When a car is making a turn on a level road, WHY does the static friction point inward? From what I've learned the direction of static friction points in the direction opposing movement but the tires are not moving outward so how can static friction point inward? Please help I really want to understand this before I move on.
Also, in a rotating cylinder with no floor is the centripetal force the normal force? And do things stick to the wall because of inertia?
thank you so much
