Find μs of the car.
- A Car takes 10 seconds to accelerate to 80km before the driver shifts the car into neutral.
- The cars mass = 1810kg
- The car coats 0.9km before coming to a complete stop.
- The total time = 86 seconds.
Here is the work I have done.
μs = ma/mg
to find a
V2 = V1 +at
22.2 = 0 +a10
a = 2.22m/s2
μs = 1810 * 2.22 / 1810 * 9.8
μs = 0.22
Does this make sense. This is the μs for the road right? How can I find it for the car? I figure I need to use the total distance it travel for something but I'm not sure how. Any help is welcome
Thanks!
