Centrifugal force never operates on a vehicle. We could call it a 'virtual' force, or a 'perceived' force. The truth is that it's imaginary and doesn't exist at all.

Centrifugal force operates on a vehicle every time the driver changes direction?

Centrigugal force operates on the tires to hold them together and has nothing to do with acceleration or deceleration.

What If an emergency vehicle passes you in traffic just as it passes you the pitch of the siren changes. This is because?

This is known as the Doppler effect. The pitch changes as the vehicle stops moving towards you, and starts to move way from you.


Why vehicles will not fall in a curve path according to centripetal acceleration?

Every object revolving around any point has an escape velocity which balances the object to its centrifugal force, when object exceeds its escape velocity it follows tangential path to its orbit. For vehicles roads are designed in such a way that they can have larger escape velocity, the term called as 'banking of roads'. The roads are made tilted on the curves making acute angle from the inner circle of the road. eg. We can see the elevations in the F1 track on the curves, this makes sharp turn at very high speed. Road quality, texture and tyres of the vehicle are also responsible in some extent. for more curved path the vehicle experiences centrifugal force which increases the pressure on the curved path by the vehicle which holds the vehicle on the curved path. More speed more centrifugal force, hence no fall. If we reduce the speed below than the specific limit the vehicle will fall.


The amount of energy absorbed by a vehicle in an impact is realted to what?

Absorbed might be a poor word as a vehicle can only absorb so much energy, some will change the direction of movement, and so on.The things we need to look at are:the speed of the impact (this is the answer you are looking for)The speed and direction of the vehicle after impactThe difference is the energy absorbed.

How can a vehicle at the same time have a constant speed but changing velocity?

Speed is a scalar quantity (direction does not matter) and velocity is a vector quantity) ie velocity means speed in a specific direction. If you are changing direction (turning) in a car, your speed is the same, while your velocity changes.


Can an unlicensed driver operate a vehicle on private property with the owners consent?

Unlicensed drivers cannot operate a vehicle on private property. The insurance for the vehicle will not allow unlicensed drivers. Most states require every vehicle in operation to be insured.
