You take the same bend near Cauberg first at 30 km/h, then at 60 km/h. How does the centrifugal force at 60 km/h relate to that at 30 km/h?

Explanation

At 60 km/h the centrifugal force is four times as large as at 30 km/h, not twice

Why learners get this wrong

• At 60 km/h the centrifugal force is four times as large as at 30 km/h, not twice
