Hi everyone, I'm having trouble with this problem and I think I never wrote down the equation for this question. Can someone help me? Thanks!


A car enters a level circular curve of radius 50.0 m. If the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is 0.600, what is the maximum speed that the car can go and stay on the road?


A
22.4 m/s
B
17.1 m/s
C
14.6 m/s
D
9.42 m/s

Nevermind, I got the answer now. I found the formula in my notes.
