Ohh, that’s the final velocity when it’s at the end of the arc ? So I find the velocity when it’s halfway , then apply it in v^2/r

That would mean the 200 m changes to 100 m And it’ll give me a higher number , 79.03 m/s^2

That first one was a typo , in the paper it says 320 km/h

Homework Statement A car at the Indianapolis 500 accelerates uniformly from the pit area, going from rest to 320km/h in a semicircular arc with a radius of 200 m. Determine the tangential and radial acceleration of the car when it is halfway through the arc, assuming constant tangential...

Thanks guys , I was able to finally solve it :) !

So I just set both equations equal to either Fn or Ff and go from there ?

To be sure , first I find one unknown variable then plug into another equation to find another and all?

Would it be to derive the mg into vertical and horizontal components as well?

Okay, Noted . Now I’m having some difficulties, so for vertical components , it will be : Fncos(theta) = mg+ Ffsin(theta) And the other equation being : Fnsin(theta) + Ffcos(theta) = mv^2/r Do I isolate Fn and substitute It into the other equation to solve for Ff ? Or do I break down Ff...

So do I disregard the angle ? And oh shoot ! I forgot about the vertical component of friction

Yes
