...pushed toward the left.? when a roller coaster takes a sharp turn to the right, it feels as if you are pushed toward the left. does a force push you to the left?if so, what is it? if not, why does there seem to be such a force.

You are feeling the effect of centripetal force. Learn about this at, for instance, this Wikipedia article: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centripetal_force[/url]

its because when you are moving straight, your body wants to keep going straight. So the roller coaster goes right, but you are still trying to go straight, so it feels like you are getting pulled to the left. I think it is called centripetal force

Really Good.... Ur question was































Bcoz the force acts from center. thats why you realized to push out. that means left. Imagine you are in a circle. the force acts from center means you will push to out.































Some of the persons cycling, and pull out to center when they are crossing the bends. In this criteria force is acts towards center.































these two forces based on center is called centripetal force
