Static friction in Rotational Motion

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the maximum force of static friction and the coefficient of static friction for a car weighing 10,500 N rounding a curve with a radius of 102 m at a speed of 44.0 m/s. Participants are encouraged to share their attempts and identify where they are encountering difficulties to facilitate assistance. The problem involves understanding the relationship between weight, speed, and friction in rotational motion. The conversation aims to clarify these concepts and provide guidance on solving the physics problem. Engaging with the community can enhance understanding of static friction in this context.

A car with a weight of 10,500 N rounds a curve with a radius of 102 m on a level road at 44.0 m/s. The tires are at the point of starting to skid at this speed.
a. What is the maximum force of static friction?
b. What is the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road?

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
