what will happen to the force needed to keep something in a circular path if the radius doubles while other variables stay the same?



Answer :

The force doubles as it is directly proportional to the radius.

Does anything move faster when it follows a circular path?

A shift in velocity can occur in either its magnitude (speed), its direction, or both. Even if the speed may be constant in uniform circular motion, there is always an accompanying acceleration since the direction of the velocity is continually changing.

What maintains the car's trajectory in a curve?

Friction between the tyres and the road causes the centripetal force that causes the car to turn in a circular motion. If there isn't enough friction, the car will move in a curve with a larger radius and veer off the road.
