1. Homework Statement [
An Aston Martin V8 Vantage sports car has maximum "lateral acceleration" of 0.96"g's" ,after which the car begins to skid out of its turn.
Calculate the coefficient of static friction between the car's tyres and the road.
where Us is coefficient of friction
Fnet(vertical)=n-mg=o
Fnet(radial)=fs= Us*N=m(v^2/r)
Us*mg=m(v^2/r)
Us=V^2/r*g
=a(r)/g
= (0.96*9.81)m/s^2/9.81m/s^2
=0.96
