Answer 1

Suppose a vehicle moves on a convex bridge

Then,

$\begin{gathered}\\\qquad\quad\boxed {\purple{\sf\longrightarrow Centipetral\;force=mg\:cos\theta -\dfrac {mv^2}{r}} }\end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered}\\\qquad\quad\boxed {\blue{\sf\longrightarrow Reaction_{(R)}=mg\:cos\theta-mv^2}}\end{gathered}$

Where,

• m = mass of vehicle
• g = acceleration due to gravity
• R = reaction
• v = velocity

Centipetral Force:-

When a object moves on a circular path then a net force is acted on the object to keep it moving along the circular direction. It is called centipetral force .

$\boxed{\orange{\sf {}^{F}Centipetral=m\dfrac {v^2}{r}}}$

According to Newton's First law,

A object keep moving on a straight path until it is acted on by external force (Centipetral force).
