Videos for this chapter:
Ask Mr. Talbot about centripital acceleration if he hasn't yet shown you the candle thing. If you don't know what that means, ask. Just know that these videos are great for general concepts, but always remember to question people's terminology, especially words like "Centripital force"
Race cars with constant speed around curve: When acceleration could involve a change in direction and not speed
Centripetal force and acceleration intuition: The direction of the force in cases of circular motion at constant speeds
Visual understanding of centripetal acceleration formula: Visual understanding of how centripetal acceleration relates to velocity and radius
Optimal turns at Indianapolis Motor Speedway with JR Hildebrand:
Loop de loop question: Asks students to find the minimum speed necessary to complete the loop de loop
Loop de loop answer part 1: Figuring out the minimum speed at the top of the loop de loop to stay on the track
Loop de loop answer part 2: Figuring out the car's average speed while completing the loop de loop
