Given information
The radius of curve m
Speed of car km/h
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
Centripetal acceleration is given by,
where the velocity of the car
the radius of the circular path
The coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is calculated with the help of static friction force.
Static friction is a different kind of force that keeps an object at rest.
The static friction force is given by,
= Static friction coefficient
: Speed
: Radius of the circular path
: Static friction force
