Question

the fictitious force that gives you the feeling that a force is pushing you when you are in a car traveling around a curve in the road is called \force.\

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

When a car travels around a curve, in the non - inertial frame of the car, there is a fictitious force that seems to push the passenger outward. This force is called the centrifugal force. It is a pseudo - force that appears in rotating reference frames. In reality, the centripetal force (a real force, such as friction between the car's tires and the road or the normal force in a banked curve) acts towards the center of the circular path to keep the car (and the passenger inside the car) moving in a circular motion. But from the perspective of the passenger in the car (a non - inertial frame), the centrifugal force is the apparent force that gives the feeling of being pushed outward.

Answer:

Centrifugal
