Suppose the designated speed for the ramp is to be 13.2 m/s (29.5 mi/h) and the radius of the curve is 34 m.
The coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is 0.33. What maximum speed could a car negotiate the exit ramp without skidding?
Vmax = square root of (µ(static) g r)
Vmax = Maximum velocity
g = Acceleration due to gravity (9.80 m/sec^2)
r = Radius of curve
µ = Coefficient of static friction
Vmax = 10.485 m/s
however, this answer wasn't right. what am i doing wrong? THANKS.
