Homework Statement
On a wet racetrack, the maximum safe speed, to avoid sliding on a level circular curve with a radius of curvature of 53 m, is 77 km/hr. What is the coefficient of friction between the car's tires and the track surface?
Homework Equations
(gravity)*(coefficient) = (v^2)/r
V= 21.39 m/s (after changing 77 km/hr into m/s)
Radius= 55 meters
The Attempt at a Solution
I kept getting the same answer .8488, but it keeps telling me I'm wrong? Help please!
