force
What is Newton's 2nd Law? Right Ans - The acceleration of a body is
proportional to the force applied and inversely proportional to the mass of the
body
Newton's 2nd law is also known as... Right Ans - The law of exceleration
What is the formula for Newton's 2nd Law? Right Ans - f=ma (force = mass
x acceleration
What is Newton's 3rd Law? Right Ans - For every action force there is an
equal and opposite reaction force
Newton's 3rd law is also known as Right Ans - The law of the conservation
of energy: Momentum
Centrifugal force is... Right Ans - Outward force
Centripetal force is... Right Ans - Inward force
What is Friction? Right Ans - The force between two bodies that resists
motion
What is a Stable Platform? Right Ans - Vehicle platform rests on four

- Pick your entry to the turn
- Stay off painted lines
- As the vehicle begins to enter the turn, smoothly release brake pedal
pressure
- Maintain a constant speed to the apex
What is the process in the Apex/Low in setting up for a curve? Right Ans - -
When you can see through the turn, begin to steer smoothly toward the apex
- As the vehicle reaches the apex, smoothly apply power
- An early apex should never be attempted & is a common & serious mistake
What is the process in the Exit/High in setting up for a curve? Right Ans - -
Accelerate out of the turn
- Allow the vehicle to smoothly drift to the exit point
- Continue to accelerate, look down the road
What are the 3 dynamics of steering? Right Ans - 1. Counter steer
2. Under steer
3. Over steer
