When does Centrifugal force come into play for a vehicle?

• When the vehicle brakes

• When the vehicle accelerates

• When the vehicle takes a turn

Frictional force is dependent on

• Normal force and coefficient of friction between the two surfaces

• Force acting the body and Coefficient of friction between the two surfaces

• The area of surface contact and force acting
