Banking & Circular Motion
Take a car around a flat or banked curve and find the fastest safe speed.
About this simulation
Set curve radius, bank angle and friction and the sim shows the centripetal force required and whether banking plus friction can supply it, flagging skid at the maximum safe speed. A cross-section makes the force resolution clear while a top-down view circles the car; a conical-pendulum preset covers the string variant.
