How do trains go around bends?

Answer Posted / Hari Shankar Mehra

Trains go around bends by curving the track and using centripetal force to keep the train moving along the curve. The inside rails of the curve are raised slightly, which forces the wheels towards the center of the turn, generating the necessary centripetal force.
