When I was younger, I guess I didn't have the most supportive bras. I remember feeling like I was getting choked by my breasts when I was on gravitron. 😂😂
Yes! The banking means that a component of the normal force points toward the center of the turn, which means it contributes to the centripetal force. That calculation isn't as simple as the one shown here, but you can find it in most intro physics books, like this one: openstax.org/books/college-physics/pages/6-3-centripetal-force
@@brain.eating.amoeba technically gravity is fictitious by the same logic, since you are accelerating when on the ground and “stationary”. But you’re still correct.
So if it’s centripetal force, why are machines made to separate solids from liquids called “centrifuge”machines? …..because centrifugal force is VERY real!!!
It might be. I found a video that someone else shared, and thought it was a better illustration of the physics than the actual Gravitron ride, but that's the only carnival name for it that I've ever heard. I think this video was taken in Australia.
