Physics Introduction to Statics and Dynamics: Forces and Newton's Laws - Turning Forces

This video introduces centripetal force, explaining its role in circular motion. It uses a taxi's journey through a roundabout to illustrate changes in velocity and acceleration. The video also covers the forces acting on the taxi, including friction and net force, and explains the concept of centripetal force with examples like Earth's orbit. Additionally, it distinguishes between torque and force, highlighting their differences and applications.
