Question

qe 3. using newtons first law, predict what will happen when a car traveling on an icy road comes to a sharp turn. the car will come to a complete stop without sliding the car will continue to travel in a straight line. the car will be able to turn without difficulty the car will accelerate forward. clear all

Explanation:

Newton's first law states that an object in motion will stay in motion with a constant velocity (in a straight - line path) unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. On an icy road, there is very little friction. When the car attempts to turn, there is not enough centripetal force (usually provided by friction) to change its direction. So, it will continue in its original straight - line motion.

Answer:

B. The car will continue to travel in a straight line.
