Thank you!

Ok I think I got it. Since in this case, the centripetal force is equal to the frictional force between the tires and the pavement, I can say that Fcentripetal = Ffrictional and therefore (m*v2)/2R = μ*m*a. I can solve for v and get v = √(2R * μ * a). I can also disregard μ since the frictional...
