You are sitting in the back seat of a taxi. the taxi driver makes a very sharp turn to the left, but maintains a constant speed. because you are not wearing your seatbelt, you begin to slide to the right. 1)which of the following forces acted on you to make you slide to the right? centripetal force to the right centripetal force to the left friction force to the right friction force to the left there is no force that made you slide to the right.

Friction force to the right

Explanation:

Since we know that when car is taking sharp left turn then our tendency of motion is along the car

So we also have tendency to take turn towards left

Since we know that friction force always oppose the tendency of relative motion between two surface

so the friction force between car and us will oppose the relative motion and it will act opposite to it

So the friction force will be towards right due to which the person inside the car will slide towards right

so correct answer will be

Friction force to the right

they should be similar or the same

not moving. pos accel,
